Proverbs 30:15-16
New Living Translation
15 The leech has two suckers
that cry out, “More, more!”[a]
There are three things that are never satisfied—
no, four that never say, “Enough!”:
16 the grave,[b]
the barren womb,
the thirsty desert,
the blazing fire.
Proverbs 30:15-16

Give and Give.[a]
(A)Three things are never satisfied;

16 (C)Sheol, (D)the barren womb,
the land never satisfied with water,
and the fire that never says, “Enough.”
