Contextual Overview
1 "Why are times not kept by Shaddai? Why do those who know him not see his days? 2 There are those who move boundary markers; they carry off flocks and pasture them; 3 they drive away the orphan's donkey; as collateral, they seize the widow's ox. 4 They push the needy out of the way — the poor of the land are forced into hiding; 5 like wild donkeys in the wilderness, they have to go out and scavenge food, [hoping that] the desert will provide food for their children. 6 They must reap in fields that are not their own and gather late grapes in the vineyards of the wicked. 7 They pass the night without clothing, naked, uncovered in the cold, 8 wet with mountain rain, and hugging the rock for lack of shelter. 9 "There are those who pluck orphans from the breast and [those who] take [the clothes of] the poor in pledge, 10 so that they go about stripped, unclothed; they go hungry, as they carry sheaves [of grain];

Gill's Notes on the Bible
They cause the naked to lodge without clothing,.... That is, such as are poorly clothed, thinly arrayed, have scarce anything but rags, and yet so cruel the wicked men above described, that they take these away from the poor, and even their bed clothes, which seem chiefly designed; so that they are obliged to lodge or lie all night without anything upon them:
that [they have] no covering in the cold; neither in the daytime, nor in the night, and especially the latter; and having no house to go to, and obliged to lay themselves down upon the bare ground, had nothing to cover them from the inclemency of the weather; for even in hot countries nights are sometimes cold, and large dews fall, yea, sometimes it is a frost, see Genesis 31:40.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
They cause the naked to lodge without clothing - They strip others of their clothing, and leave them destitute.
That they have no covering in the cold - All travelers tell us, that though the day is intensely hot in the deserts of Arabia, yet the nights are often intensely cold. Hence, the sufferings of those who are plundered, and who have nothing to defend themselves from the cold air of the night.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Job 24:7. They cause the naked to lodge without clothing — Or rather, They spend the night naked, without clothing; and without a covering from the cold: another characteristic of the wandering Arabs. They are ill-fed, ill-clothed. and often miserable off, even for tents. They can have little household stuff: as they are plunderers, they are often obliged to fly for their lives, and cannot encumber themselves with what is not absolutely needful.
