²⁸ “So man wastes away like something rotten,
    like a garment^(A) eaten by moths.^(B)

⁸ For the moth will eat them up like a garment;^(A)
    the worm^(B) will devour them like wool.
But my righteousness will last forever,^(C)
    my salvation through all generations.”

¹² I am like a moth^(A) to Ephraim,
    like rot^(B) to the people of Judah.
