Israelchen wird auf den Tisch gesetzt. Tate Baruch attaquirt in Front mit Rhabarber, während Memme Rachel mit Lavements in den Rücken fällt. Pefselche, Schmul und Löbche - der seinen neuen Rock aus alten Beinkleidern an hat - harren ängstlich der Wiedergeburt ihres R 5,30,, mehr werthen Bruders; und siehe, das Goldsöhnchen lässt sie nicht länger warten!

Little Israel is placed onto the table. Father Baruch attacks him from the front with rhubarb, while Mother Rachel gives him an enema in the back. Pefselche, Schmul, and Löbche - who is wearing a new skirt made out of old trousers - anxiously await the rebirth of their R 5,30,, worth from their brother; and look, the little gold son won't wait any longer!"

Engraving and text from Darstellungen menschlicher Narrheiten (Representations of human follies). In German, the text reads : "Was wolt Ihr Juden bey den Sachen, / soll man euch auch zu Narren machen. / Sie wollen einen Wipper krönen. / Der sich mit ihnen wird versöhnen. / Weil er so viel Profit genomen, / als feinen Juden zu gekomen." In English, the text reads : "What do you Jews want by those things, should you all be made into fools as well. / They want to crown a "Wipper," / Who will reconcile with them. / Because he took so much profit, that he became a well off Jew." This engraving is part of a series satirizing the foolish schemes people believed during the economic crisis in the early 17th century. The title "Der Kipp-und Wipper-Narr" refers to the phrase used to describe this period of hyperinflation (Kipper- und Wipperzeit), literally meaning to "Tipper and See-saw," which refers to the unstable state of the economy.
