'Needy' in the Bible

For the needy will not always be forgotten,Nor the hope of the afflicted perish forever.

“Because of the devastation of the afflicted, because of the groaning of the needy,Now I will arise,” says the Lord; “I will set him in the safety for which he longs.”

All my bones will say, “Lord, who is like You,Who delivers the afflicted from him who is too strong for him,And the afflicted and the needy from him who robs him?”

The wicked have drawn the sword and bent their bowTo cast down the afflicted and the needy,To slay those who are upright in conduct.

Since I am afflicted and needy,Let the Lord be mindful of me.You are my help and my deliverer;Do not delay, O my God.

For the Lord hears the needyAnd does not despise His who are prisoners.

But I am afflicted and needy;Hasten to me, O God!You are my help and my deliverer;O Lord, do not delay.

May he vindicate the afflicted of the people,Save the children of the needyAnd crush the oppressor.

For he will deliver the needy when he cries for help,The afflicted also, and him who has no helper.

He will have compassion on the poor and needy,And the lives of the needy he will save.

Let not the oppressed return dishonored;Let the afflicted and needy praise Your name.

Rescue the weak and needy;Deliver them out of the hand of the wicked.

A Prayer of David.Incline Your ear, O Lord, and answer me;For I am afflicted and needy.

But He sets the needy securely on high away from affliction,And makes his families like a flock.

Because he did not remember to show lovingkindness,But persecuted the afflicted and needy man,And the despondent in heart, to put them to death.

For I am afflicted and needy,And my heart is wounded within me.

For He stands at the right hand of the needy,To save him from those who judge his soul.

He raises the poor from the dustAnd lifts the needy from the ash heap,

“I will abundantly bless her provision;I will satisfy her needy with bread.
