Proverbs 30:11-14
New International Version
11 “There are those who curse their fathers
and do not bless their mothers;(A)
12 those who are pure in their own eyes(B)
and yet are not cleansed of their filth;(C)
13 those whose eyes are ever so haughty,(D)
whose glances are so disdainful;
14 those whose teeth(E) are swords
and whose jaws are set with knives(F)
to devour(G) the poor(H) from the earth
and the needy from among mankind.(I)
Proverbs 30:11-14
Lexham English Bible
11 There is a generation that will curse its father,
and its mother it will not bless.
12 There is a generation that is pure in its own eyes,
but from its filthiness it will not be cleansed.
13 There is a generation—how lofty are their eyes!
And their eyelids they will lift.
14 There is a generation whose teeth are swords,
and its jawbones, knives,
in order to devour the poor from the earth[a]
and the needy from humankind.
