And by the vineyard of the man (A)lacking a heart of wisdom,

And its stone (D)wall has been torn down.

A little folding of the hands to rest,”

And your want like [d]an armed man.

a little folding of the hands to rest,
34 and poverty will come upon you like a robber,
and want like an armed man.

And the herbs of the mountains are (C)gathered in,

For the food of your household,
And sustenance for your maidens.
