16 aThe1 grave,
The barren womb,
The earth that is not satisfied with water—
And the fire never says, “Enough!”
The barren womb,
The earth that is not satisfied with water—
And the fire never says, “Enough!”
17 aThe eye that mocks his father,
And scorns obedience to his mother,
The ravens of the valley will pick it out,
And the young eagles will eat it.
And scorns obedience to his mother,
The ravens of the valley will pick it out,
And the young eagles will eat it.
19 The way of an eagle in the air,
The way of a serpent on a rock,
The way of a ship in the1 midst of the sea,
And the way of a man with a virgin.
The way of a serpent on a rock,
The way of a ship in the1 midst of the sea,
And the way of a man with a virgin.
20 This is the way of an adulterous woman:
She eats and wipes her mouth,
And says, “I have done no wickedness.”
She eats and wipes her mouth,
And says, “I have done no wickedness.”
