Commentary on Job 24:4

Theological / Devotional

Out of the way. The wicked force poor men to turn out of the road when they are using it and to wait until they have passed. Or, the statement may mean that the wicked make the highways so dangerous with their violence that they compel the poor and needy to seek byways for safety. For protection, these poor huddle together in whatever place of refuge they can find (see ch. 30:6).
