²³ Thy princes are rebellious, and companions of thieves: every one loveth gifts, and followeth after rewards: they judge not the fatherless, neither doth the cause of the widow come unto them.

⁹ Thou hast sent widows away empty, and the arms of the fatherless have been broken.

³ Defend the poor and fatherless: do justice to the afflicted and needy.

⁶ They slay the widow and the stranger, and murder the fatherless.

² To turn aside the needy from judgment, and to take away the right from the poor of my people, that widows may be their prey, and that they may rob the fatherless!
