Job 30:6-8

The Voice

⁶    And push them out to live in the deep valleys of the wadis—
        those desert streams that come and go—
    So these outcasts seek shelter in the overhangs and crumbling caves
        that line the banks of no-man’s-land.
⁷    Braying like donkeys from the bushes,
        huddled together in the prickly undergrowth are
⁸    Fools and sons of no-names,
        driven by lashes out from the bosom of the land.

⁷Among the bushes they brayed; under the nettles they were gathered together.

⁸They were children of fools, yea, children of base men: they were viler than the earth.
