Far from human dwellings they cut a shaft, in places untouched by human feet; far from other people they dangle and sway.
NIV
Men break open shafts away from where people sojourn, in places forgotten by [human] foot; and [descend into them], hanging afar from men, they swing or flit to and fro.
AMP
The flood breaketh out from the inhabitant; even the waters forgotten of the foot: they are dried up, they are gone away from men.
KJV
