KJV ORIGINAL

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.

Close to the original. Clear modern English.

✦ MADE SIMPLE

You'll eat but still feel empty inside. Everything around you will be falling apart, and no matter how hard you try to save what matters to you, you won't be able to protect it. Whatever you do manage to rescue, I'll let it be destroyed anyway.

⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE

When you're living wrong, nothing will ever feel like enough and nothing you love will be safe.

Then in another night vision, I saw a fourth beast that was absolutely terrifying — way stronger than anything I'd seen before. This thing had massive iron teeth and just destroyed everything in its path, crushing whatever was left under its feet. It was completely different from the other beasts, and it had ten horns sticking out of it.

They see fields they want and just take them by force. Same with houses — they grab whatever they want and don't care who they hurt. They're crushing people and stealing everything they've worked for, even taking away what families were supposed to pass down to their kids.

The enemy said, 'I will chase after them, I will catch up to them, I will divide up everything they own among my troops; I will take whatever I want from them; I will pull out my sword and completely destroy them with my own hands.'
