my words before God? Job Chapter 25 God's providence often suffers the wicked to go on a long time in their sins: but punisheth them in another life. 25:1. Times are not hid from the Almighty: but they that know him, know not his days. 25:2. Some have removed landmarks, have taken away flocks by force, and fed them. 25:3. They have driven away the ass of the fatherless, and have taken away the widow's ox for a pledge. 25:4. They have overturned the way of the poor, and have oppressed together the meek of the earth. 25:5. Others like wild asses in the desert go forth to their work: by watching for a prey they get bread for their children. 25:6. They reap the field that is not their own, and gather the vintage of his vineyard whom by violence they have oppressed. 25:7. They send men away naked, taking away their clothes who have no covering in the cold: 25:8. Who are wet, with the showers of the mountains, and having no covering embrace the stones. 25:9. They have violently robbed the fatherless, and stripped the poor common people. 25:10. From the naked and them that go without clothing, and from the hungry they have taken away the ears of corn. 25:11. They have taken their rest at noon among the stores of them, who after having trodden the winepresses suffer thirst. 25:12. Out of the cities they have made men to groan, and the soul of the wounded hath cried out, and God doth not suffer it to pass unrevenged. 25:13. They have been rebellious to the light, they have not known his ways, neither have they returned by his paths. 25:14. The murderer riseth at the very break of day, he killeth the needy, and the poor man: but in the night he will be as a thief. 25:15. The eye of the adulterer observeth darkness, saying: No eye shall see me: and he will cover his face. 25:16. He diggeth through houses in the dark, as in the day they had appointed for themselves, and they have not known the light. 25:17. If the morning suddenly appear, it is to them the shadow of death: and they walk in darkness as if it were in light. 25:18. He is light upon the face of the water: cursed be his portion on the earth, let him not walk by the way of the vineyards. 25:19. Let him pass from the snow waters to excessive heat, and his sin even to hell. 25:20. Let mercy forget him: may worms be his sweetness: let him be remembered no more, but be broken in pieces as an unfruitful tree. 25:21. For he
