6 They reap <07114> (8799) (8675) <07114> (8686) every one his corn <01098> in the field <07704>: and they gather <03953> (8762) the vintage <03754> of the wicked <07563>.
7 They cause the naked <06174> to lodge <03885> (8686) without clothing <03830>, that they have no covering <03682> in the cold <07135>.
8 They are wet <07372> (8799) with the showers <02230> of the mountains <02022>, and embrace <02263> (8765) the rock <06697> for want of a shelter <04268>.
9 They pluck <01497> (8799) the fatherless <03490> from the breast <07699>, and take a pledge <02254> (8799) of the poor <06041>.
10 They cause him to go <01980> (8765) naked <06174> without clothing <03830>, and they take away <05375> (8804) the sheaf <06016> from the hungry <07457>;
11 Which make oil <06671> (8686) within <0996> their walls <07791>, and tread <01869> (8804) their winepresses <03342>, and suffer thirst <06770> (8799).

13 # They are of those that rebel <04775> (8802) against the light <0216>; they know <05234> (8689) not the ways <01870> thereof, nor abide <03427> (8804) in the paths <05410> thereof.
14 The murderer <07523> (8802) rising <06965> (8799) with the light <0216> killeth <06991> (8799) the poor <06041> and needy <034>, and in the night <03915> is as a thief <01590>.
15 The eye <05869> also of the adulterer <05003> (8802) waiteth <08104> (8804) for the twilight <05399> , saying <0559> (8800), No eye <05869> shall see <07789> (8799) me: and disguiseth <05643> <07760> (8799) his face <06440>.
16 In the dark <02822> they dig through <02864> (8804) houses <01004>, which they had marked <02856> (8765) for themselves in the daytime <03119>: they know <03045> (8804) not the light <0216>.
17 For the morning <01242> is to them even as <03162> the shadow of death <06757>: if one know <05234> (8686) them, they are in the terrors <01091> of the shadow of death <06757>.
18 # He is swift <07031> as the waters <06440> <04325>; their portion <02513> is cursed <07043> (8792) in the earth <0776>: he beholdeth <06437> (8799) not the way <01870> of the vineyards <03754>.
19 Drought <06723> and heat <02527> consume <01497> (8799) the snow <07950> waters <04325>: so doth the grave <07585> those which have sinned <02398> (8804).
20 The womb <07358> shall forget <07911> (8799) him; the worm <07415> shall feed sweetly <04988> (8804) on him; he shall be no more remembered <02142> (8735); and wickedness <05766> shall be broken <07665> (8735) as a tree <06086> .
21 He evil entreateth <07462> (8802) the barren <06135> that beareth <03205> (8799) not: and doeth not good <03190> (8686) to the widow <0490>.
22 He draweth <04900> (8804) also the mighty <047> with his power <03581>: he riseth up <06965> (8799) , and no man is sure <0539> (8686) of life <02416>.
23 Though it be given <05414> (8799) him to be in safety <0983>, whereon he resteth <08172> (8735) ; yet his eyes <05869> are upon their ways <01870>.
24 They are exalted <07426> (8804) for a little while <04592>, but are gone and brought low <04355> (8717); they are taken out <07092> (8735) of the way <01870> as all other, and cut off <05243> (8799) as the tops <07218> of the ears of corn <07641>.
25 And if it be not so now <0645>, who will make <07760> (8799) me a liar <03576> (8686), and make <07760> (8799) my speech <04405> nothing worth <0408>?
