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.
