1:9 Behaviour of the poor and the wealthy

9 Those of humbler means can boast about their greatness 10 whereas the wealthy can boast about their weakness because they’ll pass away just like the daisies in the grass.[ref] 11 When the sun rises with its scorching heat and withers the grass, the flowers will drop and lose all their beauty. So too for rich people who’ll fade away right in the middle of all their projects.

1:10-11: Isa 40:6-7 (LXX).

9 And let _be _boasting the brother the humble, in the height of _him, 10 and the rich, in the humiliation of _him, because like a_flower of_the_grass he _will _be _passing _away.
11 For/Because rose the sun with its scorching _heat, and withered the grass, and the flower of _it fell _from, and the beauty of _the appearance of _it perished.
Thus also the rich man among the pursuits of _him will _be _being _faded _away.
