Thematic Bible



We remember the free fish we ate in Egypt, along with the cucumbers, melons, leeks, onions, and garlic.

A worker’s appetite works for him
because his hunger urges him on.

From the fruit of his mouth a man’s stomach is satisfied;
he is filled with the product of his lips.


“They struck me, but I feel no pain!
They beat me, but I didn’t know it!
When will I wake up?
I’ll look for another drink.”


>

All man’s labor is for his stomach,
yet the appetite is never satisfied.

It will be like a hungry one who dreams he is eating,
then wakes and is still hungry;
and like a thirsty one who dreams he is drinking,
then wakes and is still thirsty, longing for water.
So it will be for all the many nations
who go to battle against Mount Zion.

“Come, let me get some wine,
let’s guzzle some beer;
and tomorrow will be like today,
only far better!”

Does a wise man answer with empty counsel
or fill himself with the hot east wind?

They conceive trouble and give birth to evil;
their womb prepares deception.

Because his appetite is never satisfied,
he does not let anything he desires escape.

For we have sunk down to the dust;
our bodies cling to the ground.


Lashes and wounds purge away evil,
and beatings cleanse the innermost parts.


>

I heard, and I trembled within;
my lips quivered at the sound.
Rottenness entered my bones;
I trembled where I stood.
Now I must quietly wait for the day of distress
to come against the people invading us.



From the fruit of his mouth a man’s stomach is satisfied;
he is filled with the product of his lips.

A man will be satisfied with good
by the words of his mouth,
and the work of a man’s hands will reward him.

a man will enjoy good things,
but treacherous people have an appetite for violence.
