Destruction is within her;
Oppression and deceit do not depart from her streets and market places.

At times she was in the streets, at times in the market places,
Lurking and setting her ambush at every corner.

Furthermore, they are afraid of a high place and of dangers on the road; the almond tree (hair) blossoms [white], and the grasshopper (a little thing) is a burden, and the caperberry (desire, appetite) fails. For man goes to his eternal home and the mourners go about the streets and market places.
