“You shall not cause ^H5186 the justice ^H4941 due to your needy ^H34 brother to be turned ^H5186 aside ^H5186 in his case ^H7379.

“You shall not oppress ^H6231 a hired ^H7916 person ^H7916 who is afflicted ^H6041 and needy ^H34, whether ^H4480 he is one of your brothers ^H251 or ^H176 one of your sojourners ^H1616 who ^H834 is in your land ^H776 within your gates ^H8179.

“He raises ^H6965 the poor ^H1800 from the dust ^H6083;

He exalts ^H7311 the needy ^H34 from the ash ^H830 heap ^H6083

To make them sit ^H3427 with nobles ^H5081,

And inherit ^H5157 a seat ^H3678 of glory ^H3519;

For the pillars ^H4690 of the earth ^H776 are Yahweh’s ^H3068,

And He set ^H7896 the world ^H8398 on them.

Then Yahweh ^H3068 sent ^H7971 Nathan ^H5416 to David ^H1732. And he came ^H935 to him and [fn]said ^H559,

“There were two ^H8147 men ^H376 in one ^H259 city ^H5892, the one ^H259 rich ^H6223 and the other ^H259 poor ^H7326.

“But the poor ^H7326 man had nothing ^H369 H3605 except ^H3588 H518 one ^H259 little ^H6996 ewe ^H3535 lamb ^H3535

Which ^H834 he bought ^H7069 and nourished ^H2421;

And it grew ^H1431 up ^H1431 together ^H3162 with him and his children ^H1121.

It would eat ^H398 his morsel ^H6595 of bread and drink ^H8354 of his cup ^H3563 and lie ^H7901 in his bosom ^H2436,

And was like a daughter ^H1323 to him.

So that they caused the cry ^H6818 of the poor ^H1800 to come ^H935 to Him,

And that He might hear ^H8085 the cry ^H6818 of the afflicted ^H6041.

Vav

[fn]Yahweh ^H3068 also will be a stronghold ^H4869 for the oppressed ^H1790,

A stronghold ^H4869 in times ^H6256 of [fn]distress ^H6869;

For He who [fn]requires ^H1875 blood ^H1818 remembers ^H2142 them;

He does not forget ^H7911 the cry ^H6818 of the afflicted ^H6035.

Kaph

For the needy ^H34 will not always ^H5331 be forgotten ^H7911,

Nor the hope ^H8615 of the afflicted ^H6041 perish ^H6 forever ^H5703.

Ayin

He sits ^H3427 in the [fn]places ^H3993 of the villages ^H2691 where one lies in wait ^H3993;

In the hiding ^H4565 places ^H4565 he kills ^H2026 the innocent ^H5355;

His eyes ^H5869 [fn]stealthily ^H6845 watch ^H6845 for the [fn]unfortunate ^H2489.

He [fn]crouches ^H1794, he [fn]bows ^H7817 down ^H7817,

And the [fn]unfortunate ^H2489 fall ^H5307 [fn]by his mighty ^H6099 ones ^H6099.

Qoph

Arise ^H6965, O Yahweh ^H3068; O God ^H410, lift ^H5375 up ^H5375 Your hand ^H3027.

Do not forget ^H7911 the afflicted ^H6035.

Tav

O Yahweh ^H3068, You have heard ^H8085 the desire ^H8378 of the [fn]humble ^H6035;

You will strengthen ^H3559 their heart ^H3820, You will cause ^H7181 Your ear ^H241 to give heed ^H7181

Yahweh ^H3068 is in His holy ^H6944 temple ^H1964; [fn]Yahweh’s ^H3068 throne ^H3678 is in heaven ^H8064;

His eyes ^H5869 behold ^H2372, His eyelids ^H6079 test ^H974 the sons ^H1121 of men ^H120.

“Because ^H4480 of the devastation ^H7701 of the afflicted ^H6041, because ^H4480 of the groaning ^H603 of the needy ^H34,

Now ^H6258 I will arise ^H6965,” says ^H559 Yahweh ^H3068; “I will set ^H7896 him in the [fn]safety ^H3468 for which he [fn]longs ^H6315.”

The [fn]afflicted ^H6035 will eat ^H398 and be ^H7646 satisfied ^H7646;

Those who seek ^H1875 Him will praise ^H1984 Yahweh ^H3068.

May your heart ^H3824 live ^H2421 forever ^H5703!

All ^H3605 my bones ^H6106 will say ^H559, “Yahweh ^H3068, who ^H4310 is like ^H3644 You,

Who delivers ^H5337 the afflicted ^H6041 from him who is too ^H4480 strong ^H2389 for him,

And the afflicted ^H6041 and the needy ^H34 from him who robs ^H1497 him?”

Heth

The wicked ^H7563 have drawn ^H6605 the sword ^H2719 and bent ^H1869 their bow ^H7198

To cast ^H5307 down ^H5307 the afflicted ^H6041 and the needy ^H34,

To slay ^H2873 those who are upright ^H3477 in conduct ^H1870.

As for me, I am afflicted ^H6041 and needy ^H34,

[fn]May the Lord ^H136 think ^H2803 of me.

You are my help ^H5833 and the One who rescues ^H6403 me;

Do not delay ^H309, O my God ^H430.

For the choir director. A Psalm of David.

How blessed ^H835 is he who considers ^H7919 the [fn]poor ^H1800;

Yahweh ^H3068 will provide ^H4422 him escape ^H4422 in a day ^H3117 of [fn]calamity ^H7451.

Both ^H1571 [fn]low ^H1121 H120 and [fn]high ^H1121 H376,

Rich ^H6223 and poor ^H34 together ^H3162.

For Yahweh ^H3068 hears ^H8085 the needy ^H34

And does not despise ^H959 His who are prisoners ^H615.

But I am afflicted ^H6041 and needy ^H34;

Hasten ^H2363 to me, O God ^H430!

You are my help ^H5828 and my protector ^H6403;

O Yahweh ^H3068, do not delay ^H309.

[fn]May he give ^H8199 justice ^H8199 to the [fn]afflicted ^H6041 of the people ^H5971,

Save ^H3467 the children ^H1121 of the needy ^H34,

And crush ^H1792 the oppressor ^H6231.

For he will deliver ^H5337 the needy ^H34 when he cries ^H7768 for ^H7768 help ^H7768,

The [fn]afflicted ^H6041 also, and him who has ^H369 no ^H369 helper ^H5826.

Do not deliver ^H5414 the soul ^H5315 of Your turtledove ^H8449 to the wild ^H2416 beast ^H2416;

Do not forget ^H7911 the life ^H2416 of Your afflicted ^H6041 forever ^H5331.

Let not the oppressed ^H1790 return ^H7725 dishonored ^H3637;

Let the afflicted ^H6041 and needy ^H34 praise ^H1984 Your name ^H8034.

Give ^H8199 justice ^H8199 to the poor ^H1800 and the orphan ^H3490;

Justify ^H6663 the afflicted ^H6041 and destitute ^H7326.

A Prayer of David.

Incline ^H5186 Your ear ^H241, O Yahweh ^H3068, and answer ^H6030 me;

For I am afflicted ^H6041 and needy ^H34.

But He sets ^H7682 the needy ^H34 [fn]securely ^H7682 on ^H7682 high ^H7682 away from affliction ^H6040,

And makes ^H7760 his families ^H4940 like a flock ^H6629.

Because ^H3282 he did not remember ^H2142 to show ^H6213 lovingkindness ^H2617,

But persecuted ^H7291 the afflicted ^H6041, the needy ^H34 man ^H376,

And the disheartened ^H3512 H3824 to put ^H4191 them to ^H4191 death ^H4191.

For I am afflicted ^H6041 and needy ^H34,

And [fn]my heart ^H3820 is pierced ^H2490 within ^H7130 me.

For He stands ^H5975 at the right ^H3225 hand ^H3225 of the needy ^H34,

To save ^H3467 him from those who judge ^H8199 his soul ^H5315.

Pe

[fn]He has given ^H5414 freely ^H6340 to the needy ^H34,

Tsadhe

His righteousness ^H6666 stands ^H5975 forever ^H5703;

Qoph

His horn ^H7161 will be raised ^H7311 in glory ^H3519.

Who raises ^H6965 the poor ^H1800 from the dust ^H6083

And lifts ^H7311 high ^H7311 the needy ^H34 from the ash ^H830 heap ^H6083,

I know ^H3045 that Yahweh ^H3068 will maintain ^H6213 the cause ^H1779 for the afflicted ^H6031

And judgment ^H4941 for the needy ^H34.

He who despises ^H936 his neighbor ^H7453 sins ^H2398,

But how blessed ^H835 is he who is gracious ^H2603 to the [fn]poor ^H6035.

He who oppresses ^H6231 the poor ^H1800 reproaches ^H2778 his Maker ^H6213,

But he who is gracious ^H2603 to the needy ^H34 honors ^H3513 Him.

He who oppresses ^H6231 the poor ^H1800 to make ^H7235 [fn]more ^H7235 for himself

Or who gives ^H5414 to the rich ^H6223 will only ^H389 come to lack ^H4270.

Do not rob ^H1497 the poor ^H1800 because ^H3588 he is poor ^H1800,

And do not crush ^H1792 the afflicted ^H6041 at the gate ^H8179;

Do not weary ^H3021 yourself to gain ^H6238 wealth ^H6238,

Because of your understanding ^H998, cease ^H2308!

The rich ^H6223 man ^H376 is wise ^H2450 in his own eyes ^H5869,

But the lowly ^H1800 who understands ^H995 [fn]searches ^H2713 him.

There is a generation ^H1755 whose teeth ^H8127 are like swords ^H2719

And its fangs ^H4973 like knives ^H3979,

To devour ^H398 the afflicted ^H6041 from the earth ^H776

And the needy ^H34 from among men ^H120.

Open ^H6605 your mouth ^H6310, judge ^H8199 righteously ^H6664,

And render ^H1777 justice ^H1779 to the afflicted ^H6041 and needy ^H34.
