30 “But now those younger than I, as far as days, laugh at me,
whose fathers I rejected for setting with the dogs of my sheep and goats.
2 Moreover, ⌊what use to me is the strength of their hands⌋?a
With them, vigor is destroyed.
3 Through want and through barren hunger
they are gnawing in the dry region in the darkness of desolation and waste.
4 They are picking salt herbs, the leaves of bushes,
and the roots of broom trees to warm themselves.
5 They were driven out from fellow people;
they shout at them as at ab thief,
6 ⌊so that they dwell⌋c
in holes of the ground and in the rocks.
they are gathered under the nettles.
8 ⌊A senseless crowd⌋,d yes, ⌊a disreputable brood⌋,e
they were cast out from the land.
a | Literally “the strength of their hands what is for me” |
b | Hebrew “the” |
c | Literally “to dwell” |
d | Literally “sons of good-for-nothing” |
e | Literally “sons of no name” |
