Proverbs 30:15–16; Habakkuk 2:5; Proverbs 1:12

15  The leech has two daughters:

Give and Give.1

kThree things are never satisfied;

kfour never say, Enough:

16  lSheol, mthe barren womb,

the land never satisfied with water,

and the fire that never says, Enough.


Moreover, wine1 is pa traitor,

an arrogant man who is never at rest.2

His greed is as wide as Sheol;

like death qhe has never enough.

rHe gathers for himself all nations

and collects as his own all peoples.


12  like Sheol let us oswallow them alive,

and whole, like pthose who go down to the pit;
