The law of the LORD is an undefiled law, converting the soul; the testimony of the LORD is sure, and giveth wisdom unto simple.

The ungodly have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow, to cast down the simple and poor, and to slay such as are of a right conversation.

He shall keep the simple folk by their right, defend the children of the poor, and punish the wrongdoer.

He shall be favorable to the simple and poor; he shall preserve the souls of such as be in adversity.

O let not the simple go away ashamed; for the poor and needy give praises unto thy name.

Which taketh up the simple out of the dust, and lifteth the poor out of the mire,

The LORD preserveth the simple; I was brought down in misery and he helped me.

When thy word goeth forth, it giveth light and understanding unto the simple.
