הִנֵּ֥ה צְרַפְתִּ֖יךָ וְלֹ֣א בְכָ֑סֶף בְּחַרְתִּ֖יךָ בְּכ֥וּר עֹֽנִי׃
Narito, dinalisay kita, ngunit hindi tulad ng pilak; pinili Ko para sa iyo ang pugon ng kapighatian.

Eliyahu said to Bar Hey Hey, and some say to R. Eliezer, What is it that's written, (Isaiah 48:10) "Behold, I have refined you, but not as silver; I have tried you in the furnace of poverty"? It teaches that the Holy One, blessed be He, searched out all good qualities to give to Israel, and found only poverty. Shmuel, and some say R. Yosef, said, This is proverbial saying, Poverty befits a Jew as red leather to a white horse.
