There is a generation that curseth their father, and doth not bless their mother;
12
there is a generation that are pure in their own eyes, yet are not washed from their filthiness;
13
there is a generation, -- how lofty are their eyes, how their eyelids are lifted up!
14
-- a generation whose teeth are swords, and their jaw-teeth knives, to devour the afflicted from off the earth, and the needy from [among] men.
