Job 30:1-4

1But now they that are youngerH3117 H6810 than I have me in derisionH7832, whose fathersH1 I would have disdainedH3988 to have setH7896 with the dogsH3611 of my flockH6629.1

2Yea, wheretoH4100 might the strengthH3581 of their handsH3027 profit me, in whom old ageH3624 was perishedH6?

3For wantH2639 and famineH3720 they were solitaryH1565; fleeingH6207 into the wildernessH6723 in former timeH570 desolateH7722 and wasteH4875.2 3

4Who cut upH6998 mallowsH4408 by the bushesH7880, and juniperH7574 rootsH8328 for their meatH3899.
