'Shuts' in the Bible

“So the helpless have hope,And injustice shuts its mouth.

“Behold, He tears down, and it cannot be rebuilt;He imprisons a man, and there can be no release.

He who [slyly] winks his eyes does so to plot perverse things;And he who compresses his lips [as if in a secret signal] brings evil to pass.

He who walks righteously and speaks with integrity,Who rejects gain from fraud and from oppression,Who shakes his hand free from the taking of bribes,Who stops his ears from hearing about bloodshedAnd shuts his eyes to avoid looking upon evil;

Even when I cry out and shout for help,He shuts out my prayer.
