13 There is a generation, oh how lofty are their eyes! Their eyelids are lifted up.
14 There is a generation whose teeth are like swords, And their jaws like knives, To devour the poor from the earth, and the needy from among men.
15 'The leach has two daughters: 'Give, give.' 'There are three things that are never satisfied; Four that don't say, 'Enough:'
16 Sheol, The barren womb; The earth that is not satisfied with water; And the fire that doesn't say, 'Enough.'
17 The eye that mocks at his father, And scorns obedience to his mother: The ravens of the valley shall pick it out, The young eagles shall eat it.
