Job 24:1-7 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

1. “I wish God All-Powerful would set a time for judging.People who know God look for such a day, but they do not see it.

2. Wicked people take other people’s land.They steal flocks of sheep and take them to new pastures.

3. They chase away the orphan’s donkey.And they take the widow’s ox when she cannot pay what she owes.

4. They push needy people off the path.So all the poor people of the land hide from them.

5. The poor become like wild donkeys in the desert.They go about their job of finding food.The desert gives them food for their children.

6. They gather hay and straw in the fields.And they pick up leftover grapes from the evil man’s vineyard.

7. They spend the night naked, because they have no clothes.They have nothing to cover themselves in the cold.
