Genesis 39:11

39:11 One day ¹  he went into the house to do his work when none of the household servants ²  were there in the house.

Job 24:13-15

24:13 There are those ³  who rebel against the light;

they do not know its ways

and they do not stay on its paths.

24:14 Before daybreak ⁴  the murderer rises up;

he kills the poor and the needy;

in the night he is ⁵  like a thief. ⁶ 

24:15 And the eye of the adulterer watches for the twilight,

thinking, ⁷  ‘No eye can see me,’

and covers his face with a mask.

Romans 13:12-14

13:12 The night has advanced toward dawn; the day is near. So then we must lay aside the works of darkness, and put on the weapons of light. 13:13 Let us live decently as in the daytime, not in carousing and drunkenness, not in sexual immorality and sensuality, not in discord and jealousy. 13:14 Instead, put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh to arouse its desires. ⁸ 

Ephesians 5:11

5:11 Do not participate in the unfruitful deeds of darkness, but rather ⁹  expose them. ¹⁰ 

¹ tn Heb “and it was about this day.”

² tn Heb “the men of the house.”

³ tn Heb “They are among those who.”

⁵ tn The text simply has לָאוֹר (la’or, “at light” or “at daylight”), probably meaning just at the time of dawn.

⁶ tn In a few cases the jussive is used without any real sense of the jussive being present (see GKC 323 §109.k).

⁷ sn The point is that he is like a thief in that he works during the night, just before the daylight, when the advantage is all his and the victim is most vulnerable.

⁷ tn Heb “saying.”

⁹ tn Grk “make no provision for the flesh unto desires.”

¹¹ tn The Greek conjunction καὶ (kai) seems to be functioning here ascensively, (i.e., “even”), but is difficult to render in this context using good English. It may read something like: “but rather even expose them!”

¹² tn Grk “rather even expose.”
