Proverbs 30:15-16
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
15 The leech has two daughters;
“Give, give,” they cry.
Three things are never satisfied;
four never say, “Enough”:
16 Sheol, the barren womb,
the earth ever-thirsty for water,
and the fire that never says, “Enough.”(A)
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.
