- "Call if you will, but who will answer you? To which of the holy ones will you turn?
- Resentment kills a fool, and envy slays the simple.
- I myself have seen a fool taking root, but suddenly his house was cursed.
- His children are far from safety, crushed in court without a defender.
- The hungry consume his harvest, taking it even from among thorns, and the thirsty pant after his wealth.
|
- Call now, if there be any that will answer thee; and to which of the saints wilt thou turn?
- For wrath killeth the foolish man, and envy slayeth the silly one.
- I have seen the foolish taking root: but suddenly I cursed his habitation.
- His children are far from safety, and they are crushed in the gate, neither is there any to deliver them.
- Whose harvest the hungry eateth up, and taketh it even out of the thorns, and the robber swalloweth up their substance.
