God » To believers » Divine protection
I know [with confidence] that the Lord will maintain the cause of the afflicted,
And [will secure] justice for the poor.
But with righteousness and justice He will judge the poor,
And decide with fairness for the downtrodden of the earth;
And He shall strike the earth with the rod of His mouth,
And with the breath of His lips He shall slay the wicked.
You [evildoers] shamefully plan against the poor,
But the Lord is his safe refuge.
“Because of the devastation of the afflicted, because of the groaning of the needy,
Now I will arise,” says the Lord; “I will place him in the safety for which he longs.”
Your flock found a dwelling place in it;
O God, in Your goodness You provided for the poor.
For the Lord hears the needy
And does not despise His who are prisoners.
For He will stand at the right hand of the needy,
To save him from those who judge his soul.
