“The lion perishes for lack of prey,
And the whelps of the lioness are scattered.

“There dwells in his tent nothing of his;
Brimstone is scattered on his habitation.

“Where is the way that the light is divided,
Or the east wind scattered on the earth?

“He sinks a shaft far from habitation,
Forgotten by the foot;
They hang and swing to and fro far from men.

And I said, ‘Thus far you shall come, but no farther;
And here shall your proud waves stop’?
