12 There is a generation that are pure in their own eyes, and yet is not washed from their filthiness.
13 There is a generation, O how lofty are their eyes! and their eyelids are lifted up.
14 There is a generation, whose teeth are as swords, and their jaw teeth as knives, to devour the poor from off the earth, and the needy from among men.”*

*Old Testament | Proverbs 30:12-14
The Book of Proverbs ..., "Proverbs (of Solomon)") is a book in the third section (called Ketuvim) of the Hebrew Bible and a book of the Christian Old Testament.[1] ...
Proverbs is not merely an anthology but a "collection of collections" relating to a pattern of life which lasted for more than a millennium.[2] It is an example of the biblical wisdom literature, and raises questions of values, moral behaviour, the meaning of human life, and right conduct,[3] and its theological foundation is that "the fear of God (meaning submission to the will of God) is the beginning of wisdom".[4] ...
