View Full Chapter

12those who are pure in their own eyes and yet are not cleansed of their filth;

13those whose eyes are ever so haughty, whose glances are so disdainful;

14those whose teeth are swords and whose jaws are set with knives to devour the poor from the earth and the needy from among mankind.

15“The leech has two daughters. ‘Give! Give!’ they cry. “There are three things that are never satisfied, four that never say, ‘Enough!’:

16the grave, the barren womb, land, which is never satisfied with water, and fire, which never says, ‘Enough!’

17“The eye that mocks a father, that scorns an aged mother, will be pecked out by the ravens of the valley, will be eaten by the vultures.
