Job 24:14 in Context — Job 24

12 De la ciudad gimen los hombres, y claman las almas de los heridos de muerte: mas Dios no puso estorbo.

13 Ellos son los que, rebeldes á la luz, nunca conocieron sus caminos, ni estuvieron en sus veredas.

14 A la luz se levanta el matador, mata al pobre y al necesitado, y de noche es como ladrón.

15 El ojo del adúltero está aguardando la noche, diciendo: No me verá nadie: y esconde su rostro.

16 En las tinieblas minan las casas, que de día para sí señalaron; no conocen la luz.
