And if they have been prisoned in chains, and taken in cords of trouble, Then he makes clear to them what they have done, even their evil works in which they have taken pride. Their ear is open to his teaching, and he gives them orders so that their hearts may be turned from evil. If they give ear to his voice, and do his word, then he gives them long life, and years full of pleasure. But if not, they come to their end, and give up their breath without knowledge. Those who have no fear of God keep wrath stored up in their hearts; they give no cry for help when they are made prisoners.

He makes the wrong done to the poor the way of their salvation, opening their ears by their trouble.
