Amos 6:13
Ye which rejoice in a thing of nought, which say, Have we not taken to us horns by our own strength?
KJV
Numquid currere queunt in petris equi, aut arari potest in bubalis ? quoniam convertistis in amaritudinem judicium, et fructum justitiæ in absinthium.
Vulgate
οἱ εὐφραινόμενοι ἐπ’ οὐδενὶ λόγῳ, οἱ λέγοντες Οὐκ ἐν τῇ ἰσχύι ἡμῶν ἔσχομεν κέρατα;
LXX
ye that rejoice in a thing of nought, that say, Have we not taken to us horns by our own strength?
