“Indeed, like wild donkeys in the desert, the poor go to work foraging for food; the wasteland is food for their children.”
Job 24:5 (BSB)
Context Reading
3They drive away the donkey of the fatherless and take the widow’s ox in pledge. 4They push the needy off the road and force all the poor of the land into hiding. 5Indeed, like wild donkeys in the desert, the poor go to work foraging for food; the wasteland is food for their children. 6They gather fodder in the fields and glean the vineyards of the wicked. 7Without clothing, they spend the night naked; they have no covering against the cold.
