Proverbs 30:14-16
International Standard Version
14 Some people[a] have swords for teeth
and knives for fangs
to devour the afflicted from the earth
and the needy from among mankind.
15 The leech has two daughters:
“Give” and “Give”.
Three things will never be satisfied;
four will never say “Enough”—
16 The afterlife,[b] the barren womb,
earth that still demands water,
and fire—they never say, “Enough”.
