| 9 | Either you will surrender your reputation to others and [the rest of] your years to some cruel person, | lest you give your honor to others and your years to the merciless, | lest you lose your honor to others and your dignity to one who is cruel, | |
| 10 | or strangers will benefit from your strength and you will have to work hard in a pagan's house. | lest strangers take their fill of your strength, and your labors go to the house of a foreigner, | lest strangers feast on your wealth and your toil enrich the house of another. | |
| 11 | Then you will groan when your end comes, when your body and flesh are consumed. You will say, | and at the end of your life you groan, when your flesh and body are consumed, | At the end of your life you will groan, when your flesh and body are spent. | |
