    5. She deserved this punishment.
    6. You are a worthless bum.
    Just to add: не стоит труда (Genetive of negation)
    Example based on my understanding: Не стоит труда постараться поменять его мнение
    Чем больше слов, тем меньше они стоят.

    Не стоит труда X = X doesn't worth efforts.

    It means that the result of X would be so minor that it brings close to nothing.

    Не стоит труда его переубеждать: всё равно он не способен ничего изменить.
