Job 30:2-4
English Standard Version Anglicised

2 What could I gain from the strength of their hands,
    (A)men whose (B)vigour is gone?
3 Through want and hard hunger
    they (C)gnaw (D)the dry ground by night in (E)waste and desolation;
4 they pick saltwort and the leaves of bushes,
    and the roots of the broom tree for their food.[a]

    they roamed[a] the parched land(A)
    in desolate wastelands(B) at night.(C)
4 In the brush they gathered salt herbs,(D)
    and their food[b] was the root of the broom bush.(E)
