whose fangs are knives,(D)
devouring the oppressed from the land(E)
and the needy from among mankind.

  1. Proverbs 30:13 Lit and its eyelids lifted up

11 There are those who curse their father
    and don’t bless their mother.
12 There are those who think they are clean,
    but haven’t washed off their own excrement.
13 There are those—

    ready to devour the needy from the earth,
    and the poor from humanity.
