1 “But now they mock me, men younger than I am, whose fathers I would have refused to put with my sheep dogs. 2 What use to me was the strength of their hands, since their vigor had left them? 3 Gaunt from poverty and hunger, they gnawed the dry land, and the desolate wasteland by night. 4 They plucked mallow among the shrubs, and the roots of the broom tree were their food. 5 They were banished from among men, shouted at like thieves, 6 so that they lived on the slopes of the wadis, among the rocks and in holes in the ground. 7 They cried out among the shrubs and huddled beneath the nettles.
