Canst thou hunt the prey for the lioness, Or satisfy the appetite of the young lions,

The appetite of the laboring man laboreth for him; For his mouth urgeth him thereto .

And put a knife to thy throat, If thou be a man given to appetite.

All the labor of man is for his mouth, and yet the appetite is not filled.

And it shall be as when a hungry man dreameth, and, behold, he eateth; but he awaketh, and his soul is empty: or as when a thirsty man dreameth, and, behold, he drinketh; but he awaketh, and, behold, he is faint, and his soul hath appetite: so shall the multitude of all the nations be, that fight against mount Zion.

They shall not pour out wine-offerings to Jehovah, neither shall they be pleasing unto him: their sacrifices shall be unto them as the bread of mourners; all that eat thereof shall be polluted; for their bread shall be for their appetite; it shall not come into the house of Jehovah.
