12 The dying groan in the city,
And the souls of the wounded cry out;
Yet God does not charge them with wrong.
And the souls of the wounded cry out;
Yet God does not charge them with wrong.
14 aThe murderer rises with the light;
He kills the poor and needy;
And in the night he is like a thief.
He kills the poor and needy;
And in the night he is like a thief.
15 aThe eye of the adulterer waits for the twilight,
bSaying, ‘No eye will see me’;
And he1 disguises his face.
bSaying, ‘No eye will see me’;
And he1 disguises his face.
16 In the dark they break into houses
Which they marked for themselves in the daytime;
aThey do not know the light.
Which they marked for themselves in the daytime;
aThey do not know the light.
