Job 20:19, 22:9, 24:2-12, Mic 2:1-2, 9 | ESV | STEP | For he has crushed and abandoned the poor ; he has seized a house that he did not build .

Job 20:19

19 For he has crushed and abandoned the poor;
he has seized a house that he did not build.

Job 22:9

9 You have ^asent widows away empty,
and ^bthe arms of ^cthe fatherless were crushed.

Job 24:2-12

2 Some move ^dlandmarks;
they seize flocks and pasture them.
3 They drive away the donkey of the fatherless;
they ^etake the widow’s ox for a pledge.
4 They ^fthrust the poor off the road;
the poor of the earth ^gall hide themselves.
5 Behold, like wild donkeys in the desert
the poor ^{▼▼Hebrew they} ⁱgo out to their toil, ^jseeking game;
the wasteland yields food for their children.
6 They gather their ^{▼▼Hebrew his} fodder in the field,
and they glean the vineyard of the wicked man.
7 They ^llie all night naked, without clothing,
and have no covering in the cold.
8 They are wet with the rain of the mountains
and ^mcling to the rock for lack of shelter.
9 (There are those who snatch the fatherless child from the breast,
and they take a pledge against the poor.)
10 They go about naked, without clothing;
hungry, they ⁿcarry the sheaves;
11 among the olive rows of the wicked ^{▼▼Hebrew their olive rows} they make oil;
they tread the winepresses, but suffer thirst.
12 From out of the city the dying groan,
and the soul of ^pthe wounded cries for help;
yet God charges no one with ^qwrong.

Micah 2:1-2

Woe to the Oppressors

1 ^rWoe to those who devise wickedness
and work evil ^son their beds!
When the morning dawns, they perform it,
because it is in the power of their hand.
2 They covet fields and ^tseize them,
and houses, and take them away;
they oppress a man and his house,
a man and his inheritance.

Micah 2:9

9 The women of my people you drive out
from their delightful houses;
from their young children you take away
my splendor forever.
