Job 30:2-4

Amplified Bible

² 
“Indeed, how could the strength of their hands profit me?
Vigor had perished from them.
³ 
“They are gaunt with want and famine;
They gnaw the dry and barren ground by night in [the gloom of] waste and desolation.
⁴ 
“They pluck [and eat] ^[a]saltwort (mallows) among the bushes,
And their food is the root of the broom shrub.
