Job 30:3-7 ▼

3 In want and emaciating hunger they fled to the parched lands: to the desolate wasteland by night.

4 They plucked saltwort and shrubs; the roots of the broom plant were their food.

5 They were banished from the community, with an outcry like that against a thief—

6 To dwell on the slopes of the wadies, in caves of sand and stone;

7 Among the bushes they brayed; under the nettles they huddled together.
