- Do not slander a slave to his master, Or he will curse you and you will be found guilty.
- There is a kind of man who curses his father And does not bless his mother.
- There is a kind who is pure in his own eyes, Yet is not washed from his filthiness.
- There is a kind--oh how lofty are his eyes! And his eyelids are raised in arrogance.
- There is a kind of man whose teeth are like swords And his jaw teeth like knives, To devour the afflicted from the earth And the needy from among men.
|
- 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.

- The leech has two daughters, "Give," "Give." There are three things that will not be satisfied, Four that will not say, "Enough":
- Sheol, and the barren womb, Earth that is never satisfied with water, And fire that never says, "Enough."
|
- 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.
