# who oppresses
"who severely mistreats"
# like a beating rain that leaves no food
The poor man who oppresses other poor people is compared to a rain that falls so hard that it leaves no crop to harvest. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-simile]])
# beating rain
This is a metaphor for a rain coming down hard enough to cause crops to be driven down. Alternate translation: "damaging rain" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
