1 But men younger than I am make fun of me now!Their fathers have always been so worthlessthat I wouldn't let them help my dogs guard sheep.
2 They were a bunch of worn-out men,too weak to do any work for me.
3 They were so poor and hungrythat they would gnaw dry roots —at night, in wild, desolate places.
4 They pulled up the plants of the desert and ate them,even the tasteless roots of the broom tree!
