'Hunger' in the Bible

“Arise, cry aloud in the nightAt the beginning of the night watches;Pour out your heart like waterBefore the presence of the Lord;Lift up your hands to HimFor the life of your little onesWho are faint because of hungerAt the head of every street.”

Better are those slain with the swordThan those slain with hunger;For they pine away, being strickenFor lack of the fruits of the field.
