¹⁴ The murderer rises with the light. He kills the poor and needy. In the night he is like a thief.

¹⁵ The eye also of the adulterer waits for the twilight, Saying, 'No eye shall see me.' He disguises his face.

¹⁶ In the dark they dig through houses. They shut themselves up in the daytime. They don't know the light.

¹⁷ For the morning is to all of them like thick darkness, For they know the terrors of the thick darkness.

⁴ He plots iniquity on his bed. He sets himself in a way that is not good; He doesn't abhor evil.

¹¹ If they say, "Come with us, Let's lay in wait for blood; Let's lurk secretly for the innocent without cause;

¹² Let's swallow them up alive like Sheol, And whole, like those who go down into the pit.

¹³ We'll find all valuable wealth. We'll fill our houses with spoil.

¹⁴ You shall cast your lot among us. We'll all have one purse."

¹⁶ For their feet run to evil. They hurry to shed blood.

¹⁶ For they don't sleep, unless they do evil. Their sleep is taken away, unless they make someone fall.

¹⁵ "Their feet are swift to shed blood.
