Thematic Bible: Duty to widow and fatherless
Thematic Bible
Social duties » Compassion » Duty to widow and fatherless
'Thou dost not turn aside the judgment of a fatherless sojourner, nor take in pledge the garment of a widow;
Thus said Jehovah: Do ye judgment and righteousness, And deliver the plundered from the hand of the oppressor, And sojourner, orphan, and widow, ye do not oppress nor wrong, And innocent blood ye do not shed in this place.
and come in hath the Levite (for he hath no part and inheritance with thee), and the sojourner, and the fatherless, and the widow, who are within thy gates, and they have eaten, and been satisfied, so that Jehovah thy God doth bless thee in all the work of thy hand which thou dost.
religion pure and undefiled with the God and Father is this, to look after orphans and widows in their tribulation -- unspotted to keep himself from the world.

'When thou dost complete to tithe all the tithe of thine increase in the third year, the year of the tithe, then thou hast given to the Levite, to the sojourner, to the fatherless, and to the widow, and they have eaten within thy gates, and been satisfied,
Remove not a border of olden times, And into fields of the fatherless enter not,
Seek judgment, make happy the oppressed, Judge the fatherless, strive for the widow.
