Micah 6:14

Thou shalt eat, but not be satisfied; and thy casting down shall be in the midst of thee; and thou shalt take hold, but shalt not deliver; and that which thou deliverest will I give up to the sword.

KJV

Tu comedes, et non saturaberis, et humiliatio tua in medio tui : et apprehendes, et non salvabis, et quos salvaveris, in gladium dabo.

Vulgate

σὺ φάγεσαι καὶ οὐ μὴ ἐμπλησθῇς, καὶ σκοτάσει ἐν σοὶ καὶ ἐκνεύσει, καὶ σὺ οὐ μὴ διασωθῇς, καὶ ὅσοι ἐὰν διασωθῶσιν εἰς ῥομφαίαν παραδοθήσονται·

LXX

Thou shalt eat, but not be satisfied; and thy humiliation shall be in the midst of thee: and thou shalt put away, but shalt not save; and that which thou savest will I give up to the sword.

ASV
