Which make oil within their walls, and tread their winepresses, and suffer thirst.

Verse 11 is found in chapter 24 of Job. Job recognizes that God is sovereign and that his purposes cannot be altered by human beings, but immediately asks why the times of judgment seem hidden. He describes cases of oppression against the poor, orphans, and needy. The argument expands from his personal suffering to the universal problem of the apparent delay of justice.

Sie zwingen sie, Öl zu machen auf ihrer Mühle und ihre Kelter zu treten, und lassen sie doch Durst leiden.
De dentro de sus paredes exprimen el aceite, Pisan los lagares, y mueren de sed.
Entre los muros exprimen aceite; pisan los lagares, pero pasan sed.
Dans les enclos de l'impie ils font de l'huile, Ils foulent le pressoir, et ils ont soif;
Quelli che spremono loro l’olio intra i lor muri, E quelli che calcano ne’ torcoli soffrono sete.
Dentro das suas paredes espremem o azeite; pisam os lagares, e ainda têm sede.
他們在圍牆內榨油, 踹壓酒池,自己卻口渴。
