Job 30:3-5
New American Standard Bible
3 From poverty and famine they are gaunt,
They who gnaw at the dry ground by night in waste and desolation,
4 Who pluck saltweed by the bushes,
And whose food is the root of the broom shrub.
5 They are driven from the community;
They shout against them as against a thief,
Job 30:3-5

3 Through want and hard hunger
they (A)gnaw (B)the dry ground by night in (C)waste and desolation;
4 they pick saltwort and the leaves of bushes,
and the roots of the broom tree for their food.[a]
5 (D)They are driven out from human company;
they shout after them as after a thief.
