11 Il est une race qui maudit son père, Et qui ne bénit point sa mère.

12 Il est une race qui se croit pure, Et qui n’est pas lavée de sa souillure.

13 Il est une race dont les yeux sont hautains, Et les paupières élevées.

14 Il est une race dont les dents sont des glaives Et les mâchoires des couteaux, Pour dévorer le malheureux sur la terre Et les indigents parmi les hommes.
