Job 30:1

But now they that are younger than I have me in derision, whose fathers I would have disdained to have set with the dogs of my flock.

KJV

Nunc autem derident me juniores tempore, quorum non dignabar patres ponere cum canibus gregis mei :

Vulgate

νυνὶ δὲ κατεγέλασάν μου· ἐλάχιστοι νῦν νουθετοῦσίν με ἐν μέρει, ⸆ ὧν ἐξουδένουν τοὺς πατέρας αὐτῶν, οὓς οὐχ ἡγησάμην ἀξίους κυνῶν τῶν ἐμῶν νομάδων.

LXX

But now they that are younger than I have me in derision, Whose fathers I disdained to set with the dogs of my flock.
