⁵ Like wild donkeys^(A) in the desert,
    the poor go about their labor^(B) of foraging food;
    the wasteland^(C) provides food for their children.

⁶ That person will be like a bush in the wastelands;
    they will not see prosperity when it comes.
They will dwell in the parched places^(A) of the desert,
    in a salt^(B) land where no one lives.
