Job 24:9

9 "[People] snatch the [nursing] orphan from a breast and take a poor woman's baby as security for a loan.

Job 24:9 In-Context

7 All night they lie naked without a covering from the cold.
8 They are drenched by the rainstorms in the mountains. They hug the rocks because they can't find shelter.
9 "[People] snatch the [nursing] orphan from a breast and take a poor woman's baby as security for a loan.
10 [That is why] the poor go around naked. They are hungry, yet they carry bundles of grain.
11 They press out olive oil between rows [of olive trees]. They stomp on grapes in wine vats, yet they are thirsty.
