10 who gives rain upon the earth and sends waters abroad;
11 who sets up the humble on high, that those who mourn may be lifted up with saving health.
12 He frustrates the devices of the crafty, so that their hands cannot perform their enterprise.
13 He takes the wise in their own prudence, and the counsel of his adversaries is turned to folly.
14 They meet with darkness in the daytime and grope in the noonday as in the night.
15 But he saves the poor from the sword, from the mouth of the wicked, and from the hand of the violent.
16 Who is the hope of the poor, and iniquity closes her mouth.
