Proverbs 30:15-17
International Standard Version
15 The leech has two daughters:
“Give” and “Give”.
Three things will never be satisfied;
four will never say “Enough”—
16 The afterlife,[a] the barren womb,
earth that still demands water,
and fire—they never say, “Enough”.
17 The eye that mocks a father
and looks with a disobedient attitude at[b] a mother—
the valley ravens will pluck it out;
and vultures will eat it.
