Job 24:5-7

New International Reader's Version

⁵ The poor are like wild donkeys in the desert.
    They have to go around looking for food.
    The dry and empty land provides the only food for their children.
⁶ The poor go to the fields and get a little grain.
    They gather up what is left in the vineyards of sinners.
⁷ The poor don’t have any clothes. So they spend the night naked.
    They don’t have anything to cover themselves in the cold.
