13 “Those who fight against the lightdo not know God’s waysor stay in his paths.
14 When the day is over, the murderers get upto kill the poor and needy.At night they go about like thieves.
15 Those who are guilty of adultery watch for the night,thinking, ‘No one will see us,’and they keep their faces covered.
16 In the dark, evil people break into houses.In the daytime they shut themselves up in their own houses,because they want nothing to do with the light.
17 Darkness is like morning to all these evil peoplewho make friends with the terrors of darkness.
18 “They are like foam floating on the water.Their part of the land is cursed;no one uses the road that goes by their vineyards.
19 As heat and dryness quickly melt the snow,so the grave quickly takes away the sinners.
