|---|---|---|
There is a generation, whose teeth are as swords, and their jaw teeth as knives, to devour the poor from off the earth, and the needy from among men.

The horseleach hath two daughters, crying, Give, give. There are three things that are never satisfied, yea, four things say not, It is enough:
|
The grave; and the barren womb; the earth that is not filled with water; and the fire that saith not, It is enough.
