ISV(i)
3 Unproductive due to poverty and hunger, they could only scratch in parched soil, devastated and desolated.
4 “They would pluck off herbs from salt marshes to eat; and roots of the broom shrub for food.
5 Driven away from human company, they were shouted at as though they were thieves.
6 They lived in the most dangerous of ravines, in holes in the ground, and among rocks.
7 They bray like donkeys among the bushes and huddle together under the desert weeds.
8 Sons of fools and of uncertain reputation, they have been driven from the land by scourging.”
