The lowly idiots do not enshrine me (Contentment) in their mindset, and for this the bodies of these idiots burn in the bondages of attachment.

For the sake of wealth they begin all sorts of work, all of which fails, but they continue on in the world with their animalistic mentality with no shame.

Just like a deer gets enticed and goes after a mirage of water, an idiot goes about in the world chasing [an illusion of happiness].

Without my (Contentment's) Grace one's desires are not quenched; desires which strike down and make these [idiots] cry out in pain.
