⁴ His children are far from safety
    and are crushed in court with no ·defense [or rescuer].

    even taking what grew among the thorns,
    and thirsty people ·want [^Lpant after] his wealth.
⁶ ·Hard times do [Misery does] not come up from the ·ground [dust],
    and trouble does not ·grow [sprout] from the earth [^Cthey come from anger and jealousy].
