He is wandering about in search of bread, saying, Where is it? and he is certain that the day of trouble is ready for him:

You do not give water to the tired traveller, and from him who has no food you keep back bread.

Like asses in the waste land they go out to their work, looking for food with care; from the waste land they get bread for their children.

If his children are increased, it is for the sword; and his offspring have not enough bread.

As for the earth, bread comes out of it; but under its face it is turned up as if by fire.

For by these he gives food to the peoples, and bread in full measure.
