'Unfortunate' in the Bible
Have I not wept for the unfortunate? Was not my soul grieved for the poor?
He sits in the lurking places of the villages;In the hiding places he kills the innocent;His eyes stealthily watch for the unfortunate.
He lurks in a hiding place like a lion in his lair;He lies in wait to catch the afflicted;He catches the afflicted when he draws him into his net.
He crouches, he bows down,And the unfortunate fall by his mighty ones.
You have seen it, for You have beheld mischief and vexation to take it into Your hand.The unfortunate commits himself to You;You have been the helper of the orphan.
Open your mouth for the mute,For the rights of all the unfortunate.
This is the unfortunate fact about everything that happens on earth: the same fate awaits everyone. In addition to this, the hearts of all people are full of evil, and there is folly in their hearts during their lives -- then they die.
Surely, no one knows his appointed time! Like fish that are caught in a deadly net, and like birds that are caught in a snare -- just like them, all people are ensnared at an unfortunate time that falls upon them suddenly.
