3 A poor man who oppresses the poor is a beating rain that leaves no food.
3 The wicked who oppress the poor are like a hailstorm that beats down the harvest.
3 A poor man who oppresses the poor Is like a driving rain which leaves no food.
3 A poor person who oppresses the poor is like a pounding rain that destroys the crops.
