Job 30:2-4
New Living Translation

2 A lot of good they are to me—
    those worn-out wretches!
3 They are gaunt from poverty and hunger.
    They claw the dry ground in desolate wastelands.
4 They pluck wild greens from among the bushes
    and eat from the roots of broom trees.

Job 30:2-4
New International Version

2 Of what use was the strength of their hands to me,
    since their vigor had gone from them?
3 Haggard from want and hunger,
    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)
