BRAGADAYJAH 1284
Job’s reply continued
The murderer rising with the light, killeth the poor and needy, and in the night is as a thief. The eye also of the adulterer waiteth for the twilight saying, “no eye shall see me,” and disguiseth his face. In the dark they dig through houses, which they had marked for themselves in the daytime. They know not the light; for the morning is to them even as the shadow of death. If one know them they are as the terrors in the shadow of death. He is swift as the waters, their portion is cursed in the earth, he beholdeth not the way of the vineyard. Drought and heat consume the snow waters, so does the grave of those who have sinned; the womb shall forget him; the worm shall feed sweetly on him. He shall no more be remembered and wickedness shall be broken as a tree. He evil entreateth the barren that beareth not; and doeth not good to the widow; he draweth also the mighty with his power; he riseth up and no man is sure of life. Though it be given him to be in safety, whereon he resteth, yet his eyes are open upon their ways. They are exalted for a little while; but are gone and brought low. They are taken out of the way, as are all other and cut off as the tops of the ears of corn. And if it be not so now, who will make me a liar? And make my speech nothing worth?
