- 3I have seen the foolish taking root: But suddenly I cursed his habitation.
- 4His children are far from safety, And they are crushed in the gate, Neither is there any to deliver them:
- 5Whose harvest the hungry eateth up, And taketh it even out of the thorns; And the snare gapeth for their substance.
