Proverbs 30:15-17

New Living Translation

¹⁵ The leech has two suckers
    that cry out, “More, more!”^[a]

There are three things that are never satisfied—
    no, four that never say, “Enough!”:
¹⁶ the grave,^[b]
    the barren womb,
    the thirsty desert,
    the blazing fire.

¹⁷ The eye that mocks a father
    and despises a mother’s instructions
will be plucked out by ravens of the valley
    and eaten by vultures.
