Proverbs 30:11-14 ▼

11 There is a generation (class of people) that curses its father And does not bless its mother.

12 There is a generation (class of people) that is pure in its own eyes, Yet is not washed from its filthiness.

13 There is a generation (class of people)—oh, how lofty are their eyes! And their eyelids are raised in arrogance.

14 There is a generation (class of people) whose teeth are like swords And whose jaw teeth are like knives, To devour the afflicted from the earth And the needy from among men.
