Job 5:3-5

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

³ I have seen fools taking root,
    but suddenly I cursed their dwelling.
⁴ Their children are far from safety,
    they are crushed in the gate,
    and there is no one to deliver them.
⁵ The hungry eat their harvest,
    and they take it even out of the thorns;^[a]
    and the thirsty^[b] pant after their wealth.
