    deserve and without stop

    How do you say in russian the following expressions:
    1. You don't deserve this faith.
    2. I deserve more.
    3. She doesn't deserve this man/life.
    4. He can work without stop/pause for many hours (Here i am looking for a narechie that has the meaning of unstoppably).
    5. She deserved this punishment.
    6. You are a worthless bum.
    Чем больше слов, тем меньше они стоят.

    1. You don't deserve this faith. - Ты не заслуживаешь такой судьбы
    2. I deserve more. - Я заслуживаю большего
    3. She doesn't deserve this man/life. - Она не заслуживает такого мужчины/такой жизни
    4. He can work without stop/pause for many hours - Он может работать без остановки многие часы/много часов. I can't come up with an adverb here.
    5. She deserved this punishment. - Она заслужила такое/это наказание
    6. You are a worthless bum. - Ты никчёмная задница

    So guess how you translate "deserve"?

    Hey, I finally came up with an adverb for "without stop/pause". It was easier than I thought Безостановочно is the word

    Он может работать безостановочно многие часы/много часов

    faith = fate подразумевалось? или они иногда синонимы?
    "Невозможно передать смысл иностранной фразы, не разрушив при этом её первоначальную структуру."

    А, мой косяк . Не заметил, что faith, а не fate.

    Should have been:

    You don't deserve this faith - Ты не заслуживаешь такого доверия/веры (веры meaning веры в кого-то)
    I do not claim that my opinion is absolutely true.

    Just to add: не стоит труда (Genetive of negation)
    Example based on my understanding: Не стоит труда постараться поменять его мнение

    In sense: it is impossible to persuade him?
    Then billion versions are possible! One of most direct possibly is:
    "Бесполезно пытаться его переубедить"

    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.

    "Россия для русских" - это неправильно. Остальные-то чем лучше?
