^16 (A)The^[a] grave,
The barren womb,
The earth that is not satisfied with water—
And the fire never says, “Enough!”

⁵ “Indeed, because he transgresses by wine,
He is a proud man,
And he does not stay at home.
Because he ^(A)enlarges his desire as ^[a]hell,
And he is like death, and cannot be satisfied,
He gathers to himself all nations
And heaps up for himself all peoples.
