Job 5:5
The hungry consume his harvest, taking it even from the thorns, and the thirsty pant after his wealth.
Note Or and a snare snatches his wealth
Whose harvest the hungry eateth up, and taketh it even out of the thorns, and the robber swalloweth up their substance.
whose harvest the hungry eat up, and take it even out of the thorns. The snare gapes for their substance.
Whose harvest the hungry eateth up, And taketh it even out of the thorns; And the snare gapeth for their substance.
