44 those who marry, like those who will have no children; and those who do not marry, like those who are widowed. 45 Because of this, those who labour, labour in vain; 46 for strangers shall gather their fruits, and plunder their goods, overthrow their houses, and take their children captive; for in captivity and famine they will produce their children.[a]
