Job 24:17 in Context — Job 24

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.

19 A seca e o calor desfazem as águas da neve; assim [faz] o Xeol aos que pecaram.
