- Accuse not a servant unto his master, lest he curse thee, and thou be found guilty.
- There is a generation that curseth their father, and doth not bless their mother.
- There is a generation that are pure in their own eyes, and yet is not washed from their filthiness.
- There is a generation, O how lofty are their eyes! and their eyelids are lifted up.
- There is a generation, whose teeth are as swords, and their jaw teeth as knives, to devour the poor from off the earth, and the needy from among men.

- "Do not slander a servant to his master, or he will curse you, and you will pay for it.
- "There are those who curse their fathers and do not bless their mothers;
- those who are pure in their own eyes and yet are not cleansed of their filth;
- those whose eyes are ever so haughty, whose glances are so disdainful;
- those whose teeth are swords and whose jaws are set with knives to devour the poor from the earth, the needy from among mankind.

- The horseleach hath two daughters, crying, Give, give. There are three things that are never satisfied, yea, four things say not, It is enough:
- The grave; and the barren womb; the earth that is not filled with water; and the fire that saith not, It is enough.
|
- "The leech has two daughters. 'Give! Give!' they cry. "There are three things that are never satisfied, four that never say, 'Enough!':
- the grave, the barren womb, land, which is never satisfied with water, and fire, which never says, 'Enough!'
