Proverbs 30:11
Compare all
9 aLest I be full and deny You,
And say, “Who is the Lord?”
Or lest I be poor and steal,
And profane the name of my God. 
10 Do not malign a servant to his master,
Lest he curse you, and you be found guilty.
11 There is a generation that curses its afather,
And does not bless its mother. 
12 There is a generation athat is pure in its own eyes,
Yet is not washed from its filthiness. 
13 There is a generation—oh, how alofty are their eyes!
And their eyelids are1 lifted up. 
14 aThere is a generation whose teeth are like swords,
And whose fangs are like knives,
bTo devour the poor from off the earth,
And the needy from among men. 
15 The leech has two daughters—
Give and Give!
There are three things that are never satisfied,
Four never say, “Enough!”:
