5 For the oppression of the poor, for the sighing of the needy, now I will arise, saith the Lord; I will set in safety the one whom the wicked one has ensnared.
6 The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.
7 Thou shalt keep them, O Lord, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.
8 The wicked press in on every side when the vilest men are exalted.
