Proverbs 30:15
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
The leech has two daughters: Give and Give. There are three things that are never satisfied, four that never say, ‘Enough!’:
In context
13 There is a generation—how haughty are their eyes and pretentious are their glances—
14 there is a generation whose teeth are swords and whose jaws are knives, devouring the oppressed from the earth and the needy from among men.
15 The leech has two daughters: Give and Give. There are three things that are never satisfied, four that never say, ‘Enough!’:
16 Sheol, the barren womb, land never satisfied with water, and fire that never says, ‘Enough!’
17 As for the eye that mocks a father and scorns obedience to a mother, may the ravens of the valley pluck it out and young vultures devour it.
