They turn the needy out of the way.
The poor of the earth all hide themselves.

Job 24:4 in context
Job 24:1–7
1
“Why aren’t times laid up by the Almighty?
Why don’t those who know him see his days?
2
There are people who remove the landmarks.
They violently take away flocks, and feed them.
3
They drive away the donkey of the fatherless,
and they take the widow’s ox for a pledge.
4
Selected verse
They turn the needy out of the way.
The poor of the earth all hide themselves.
5
Behold, as wild donkeys in the desert,
they go out to their work, seeking diligently for food.
The wilderness yields them bread for their children.
6
They cut their food in the field.
They glean the vineyard of the wicked.
7
They lie all night naked without clothing,
and have no covering in the cold.
