Job 24:2
1 “Why does the Almighty not reserve times for judgment? Why may those who know Him never see His days?
Men move boundary stones; they pasture stolen flocks.
3 They drive away the donkey of the fatherless and take the widow’s ox in pledge.
4 They push the needy off the road and force all the poor of the land into hiding.
Dette ble sagt til Israel i en bestemt tid, så det er lurt å lese det sammen med teksten rundt. Les gjerne versene rundt også, for sammenhengen gir ofte mer enn ett vers alene.
