15“The leech has two daughters:‘Give, give.’“There are three things that are never satisfied;four that don’t say, ‘Enough!’: 16Sheol,the barren womb,the earth that is not satisfied with water,and the fire that doesn’t say, ‘Enough!’ 17“The eye that mocks at his father,and scorns obedience to his mother,the ravens of the valley shall pick it out,the young eagles shall eat it. 18“There are three things which are too amazing for me,four which I don’t understand: 19The way of an eagle in the air,the way of a serpent on a rock,the way of a ship in the middle of the sea,and the way of a man with a maiden.
