1. Why doesn't God set a time for judging,a day of justice for those who serve him?
2. People move boundary stones to get more land;they steal sheep and put them with their own flocks.
3. They take donkeys that belong to orphans,and keep a widow's ox till she pays her debts.
4. They prevent the poor from getting their rightsand force the needy to run and hide.
5. So the poor, like wild donkeys,search for food in the dry wilderness;nowhere else can they find food for their children.
6. They have to harvest fields they don't own,and gather grapes in the vineyards of the wicked.
7. At night they sleep with nothing to cover them,nothing to keep them from the cold.
8. They are drenched by the rain that falls on the mountains,and they huddle beside the rocks for shelter.
9. Evil people make slaves of fatherless infantsand take the children of the poor in payment for debts.
10. But the poor must go out with no clothes to protect them;they must go hungry while harvesting wheat.
