Journey Through the Bible

Job 30:3-8

3 Haggard from want and hunger,
they roamed the parched land
in desolate wastelands at night.

4 In the brush they gathered salt herbs,
and their food was the root of the broom tree.

5 They were banished from their fellow men,
shouted at as if they were thieves.

6 They were forced to live in the dry stream beds,
among the rocks and in holes in the ground.

7 They brayed among the bushes
and huddled in the undergrowth.

8 A base and nameless brood,
they were driven out of the land.
