30:2 They travel down to Egypt
without seeking my will, 1
seeking Pharaoh’s protection,
and looking for safety in Egypt’s protective shade. 2
56:11 The dogs have big appetites;
they are never full. 3
They are shepherds who have no understanding;
they all go their own way,
each one looking for monetary gain. 4
