The eye also of the adulterer waiteth for the twilight, saying, No eye shall see me: and disguiseth his face.

Verse 15 is found in chapter 24 of Job. Job continues describing those who act in darkness and avoid the light, contrasting them with vulnerable victims. The section recognizes that real and deliberate evil exists, but observes that its consequences do not always appear immediately. Job concludes by defending the consistency of his observation against those who maintain a visible and automatic system of retribution.

Das Auge des Ehebrechers hat acht auf das Dunkel, und er spricht: "Mich sieht kein Auge", und verdeckt sein Antlitz.
El ojo del adúltero está aguardando la noche, Diciendo: No me verá nadie: Y esconde su rostro.
Los ojos del adúltero esperan el anochecer. Dice: “Ningún ojo me verá”, y se cubre el rostro.
L'oeil de l'adultère épie le crépuscule; Personne ne me verra, dit-il, Et il met un voile sur sa figure.
Parimente l’occhio dell’adultero osserva la sera, Dicendo: L’occhio di alcuno non mi scorgerà; E si nasconde la faccia.
Assim como o olho do adúltero aguarda o crepúsculo, dizendo: Não me verá olho nenhum; e oculta o rosto,
姦夫的眼等候黃昏, 說:『沒有眼睛能見我』, 就把臉蒙住。
