Job 24:9 in context

  1. 7They lie all night naked without clothing,
    and have no covering in the cold.
  2. 8They are wet with the showers of the mountains,
    and embrace the rock for lack of a shelter.
  3. 9There are those who pluck the fatherless from the breast,
    and take a pledge of the poor,
  4. 10So that they go around naked without clothing.
    Being hungry, they carry the sheaves.
  5. 11They make oil within the walls of these men.
    They tread wine presses, and suffer thirst.
