the Needy » Despised
Then said I, Wisdom is better than strength: nevertheless the poor man's wisdom is despised, and his words are not heard.
But ye have despised the poor. Do not rich men oppress you, and draw you before the judgment seats?
The poor is hated even of his own neighbour: but the rich hath many friends.
All the brethren of the poor do hate him: how much more do his friends go far from him? he pursueth them with words, yet they are wanting to him.
