You have seen it; for your eyes are on sorrow and grief, to take it into your hand: the poor man puts his faith in you; you have been the helper of the child who has no father.

To give decision for the child without a father and for the broken-hearted, so that the man of the earth may no longer be feared.

O put not your trust in princes, nor in any child of man, for there is no help in them.

Surely I have behaved and quieted myself, as a child that is weaned of his mother: my soul is even as a weaned child.

{To the chief Musician upon Sheminith, A Psalm of David.} Help, LORD; for the godly man ceaseth; for the faithful fail from among the children of men.

Thou turnest man to destruction; and sayest, Return, ye children of men.

The Lord takes care of those who are in a strange land; he gives help to the widow and to the child who has no father; but he sends destruction on the way of sinners.
