From Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913) [web1913]:

  Poverty \Pov"er*ty\ (p&obreve;v"&etilde;r*t&ybreve;), n. [OE.
     poverte, OF. povert&eacute;, F. pauvret&eacute;, fr. L.
     paupertas, fr. pauper poor. See Poor.]
     1. The quality or state of being poor or indigent; want or
        scarcity of means of subsistence; indigence; need.
        "Swathed in numblest poverty." --Keble. The drunkard and
        the glutton shall come to poverty.          --Prov.
xxiii.
                                                    21.
  
     2. Any deficiency of elements or resources that are needed
or
        desired, or that constitute richness; as, poverty of
soil;
        poverty of the blood; poverty of ideas.
  
     {Poverty grass} (Bot.), a name given to several slender
        grasses (as Aristida dichotoma, and Danthonia spicata)
        which often spring up on old and worn-out fields.
  
     Syn: Indigence; penury; beggary; need; lack; want;
          scantiness; sparingness; meagerness; jejuneness.
          Poverty, Indigence, Pauperism. Poverty is a relative
          term; what is poverty to a monarch, would be competence
          for a day laborer. Indigence implies extreme distress,
          and almost absolute destitution. Pauperism denotes
          entire dependence upon public charity, and, therefore,
          often a hopeless and degraded state. [

From Mueller English-Russian Dictionary [mueller7]:

  poverty
     _n.
        1: бедность, нужда
        2: скудность; оскудение
