Job 24:16 in Context — Job 24
14 De manhã o homicida se levanta, mata ao pobre e ao necessitado, e de noite ele age como ladrão.
15 O olho do adúltero aguarda o crepúsculo, dizendo: Olho nenhum me verá; E esconde seu rosto.
16 Nas trevas vasculham as casas, de dia eles se trancam; não conhecem a luz.
17 Porque a manhã é para todos eles como sombra de morte; pois são conhecidos dos pavores de sombra de morte.
18 Ele é ligeiro sobre a superfície das águas; maldita é sua porção sobre a terra; não se vira para o caminho das vinhas.
