'Widow's' in the Bible
And she put her widow's garments off from her, and covered her with a vail, and wrapped herself, and sat in an open place, which is by the way to Timnath; for she saw that Shelah was grown, and she was not given unto him to wife.
She got up and left, then removed her veil and put her widow’s clothes back on.
Thou shalt not pervert the judgment of the stranger, nor of the fatherless; nor take a widow's raiment to pledge:
He was a widow's son of the tribe of Naphtali, and his father was a man of Tyre, a worker in brass: and he was filled with wisdom, and understanding, and cunning to work all works in brass. And he came to king Solomon, and wrought all his work.
They drive away the ass of the fatherless, they take the widow's ox for a pledge.
The blessing of him that was ready to perish came upon me: and I caused the widow's heart to sing for joy.
If I have refused the wishes of the pooror let the widow’s eyes go blind,
(But from my youth the orphan grew up with me as with a father,And from my mother’s womb I have been the widow’s guide),
The Lord destroys the house of the proud,but He protects the widow’s territory.
Learn to do what is good.Seek justice.Correct the oppressor.Defend the rights of the fatherless.Plead the widow’s cause.
Your rulers are rebels,friends of thieves.They all love graftand chase after bribes.They do not defend the rights of the fatherless,and the widow’s case never comes before them.
