Examples from texts

One situated as he was must create resources, draw food from the earth step by step, each time a little mouth opened and cried its hunger aloud. Otherwise he would be guilty of criminal improvidence.
Quand on enfante ainsi, il faut bien, à mesure que de petites bouches s’ouvrent et crient la faim, créer des ressources, faire sortir du sol des subsistances, sous peine de tomber à une imprévoyance criminelle.

This nerves the African, naturally patient, timid and unenterprising, with heroic courage, and leads him to suffer hunger, cold, pain, the perils of the wilderness, and the more dread penalties of recapture.
L’Africain, naturellement craintif, patient, indécis, puise dans cette terreur un courage héroïque, qui lui fait affronter la faim, le froid, la souffrance, la traversée du désert, et les dangers plus redoutables encore qui l’attendent s’il échoue.

Why, sir, I've been so hungry that I have been glad to take the bones they threw to their dogs; and yet, when I was a little fellow, and laid awake whole nights and cried, it wasn't the hunger, it wasn't the whipping, I cried for.
Oui, monsieur, j’ai eu souvent si grand’faim que j’étais trop heureux de ramasser les os qu’on jetait à la meute; et pourtant, quand, tout petit garçon, je veillais et pleurait la nuit, ce n’était pas de faim, ce n’était pas à cause du fouet.

A cry for justice arose from every lip, for justice upon this earth, justice for those who hunger and thirst, whom alms are weary of relieving after eighteen hundred years of Gospel teaching, and who still and ever lack bread to eat.
Un cri de justice montait de toutes les lèvres, la justice sur cette terre, la justice pour ceux qui ont faim, que l’aumône est lasse de secourir depuis dix-huit siècles d’évangile, et qui n’ont toujours pas de pain à manger.

"This is the matter," he resumed, "I have been told that a poor fellow, a former house-painter, an old man of seventy, who naturally can work no more, is dying of hunger in a hovel in the Rue des Saules.

We had forgotten the condition of our animals. They were faint with hunger, and stiff from standing so long in the ravine. Moreover, they had just drunk to a surfeit.
Nous avions oublié l'état de nos animaux: affaiblis par la diète, engourdis par un repos si prolongé dans le ravin, et, pour comble, sortant de boire avec excès.
