¹⁶ Woe to you, land, when your king is a child,
and your leaders start their parties in the morning!
¹⁷ Happy are you, land, when your king is well-born,
and your princes eat at the proper time,
in order to stay strong, not to get drunk!
¹⁸ When the owner is lazy, the roof sags;
when hands are idle, the house leaks.
