Why has not the AImighty sessions of set justice?
Why do his followers never see him intervening?
2Evil men are removing landmarks,
plundering flocks and shepherds,
3driving off the orphan’s ass,
seizing the widow’s cow for debt,
9tearing the fatherless babe from her breast,
seizing the very infants of the poor for debt,
4evicting poor folk, till these 4 humble souls
must hide and huddle away;
5they wander like the wild ass in the desert,
roaming in search of food--
for the children have no bread.
6They have to steal corn from the fields by night,
and rob the vineyards of the rich;
7all night they lie naked, unclad, uncovered from the cold,
8drenched by downpour from the hills,
and clinging to rocks for shelter,
till vigour fails them,
2and their vital strength is gone.
3Gaunt with hunger and with want,
they gnaw herbs in the wold,
4gathering saltwort under bushes,
using broom-roots for their fuel.
3They grope in waste and desolate places,
5driven from the haunts of men--
the hue and cry after them, like thieves!
6They live in dark ravines,
in caves and rocks,
7grunting among the bushes,
coupling under the scrub,
8brainless creatures and base-born,
routed out of the country.
Some have to go bare, sy A unclothed,
10hungry while they are harvesting,
11pressing the oil between the 11 rows of olives,
thirsty while they crush wine from grapes.
13Others evade the daylight,
caring not for the ways of God,
refusing to pursue his paths.
14The murderer rises in the dark,
to kill poor folk and helpless;
12The groan of victims rises from the town,
and wounded men cry out--
but God pays no heed to the crime.
15The adulterer watches for the twilight;
he muffles up his face,
and mutters, ‘Not a soul will see me!’
14The thief prowls in the night,
16and breaks into houses in the dark;
thieves keep themselves shut up during the day,
they all detest the light;
17they choose the midnight as their time,
they are familiar with the ways of darkness.
18[[He is swept off by the flood,
a curse lies on his property;
no foot turns to his vineyard,
19ruined by drought and heat,
flooded with melting snow.
20The streets of his native place forget him,
his greatness is no more remembered,
he is uprooted like a rotten tree,
21he who ill-treats the widow,
and pities not her children.]]
22Yet God lets them remain alive and strong;
they rise, though they despaired of life;
23He lets them rest in safety,
he watches over them!
24[[Have patience! they will soon be gone,
brought low and bundled off like all the rest,
lopped like the ears of com.]]
25Who can deny it? who can prove I lie,
and show that what I urge is idle talk?”
