14 But you do see;you take note of misery and sorrow;you take the matter in hand.To you the helpless can entrust their cause;you are the defender of orphans.
15 Break the arm of the wicked and depraved;make them account for their crimes;let none of them survive.
16 The Lord is king forever;the nations have vanished from his land.
17 You listen, Lord, to the needs of the poor;you strengthen their heart and incline your ear.
18 You win justice for the orphaned and oppressed;no one on earth will cause terror again.
