⁴ Sing ye to God -- praise His name, Raise up a highway for Him who is riding in deserts, In Jah `is' His name, and exult before Him.

⁵ Father of the fatherless, and judge of the widows, `Is' God in His holy habitation.

⁶ God -- causing the lonely to dwell at home, Bringing out bound ones into prosperity, Only -- the refractory have inhabited a dry place.

³ Judge ye the weak and fatherless, The afflicted and the poor declare righteous.

¹⁸ `I will not leave you bereaved, I come unto you;

⁹ `Thus spake Jehovah of Hosts, saying: True judgment judge ye, And kindness and mercy do one with another.

¹⁰ And widow, and fatherless, Sojourner, and poor, ye do not oppress, And the calamity of one another ye do not devise in your heart.

¹¹ And they refuse to attend, And they give a refractory shoulder, And their ears have made heavy against hearing.

⁹ Jehovah is preserving the strangers, The fatherless and widow He causeth to stand, And the way of the wicked He turneth upside down.

²⁷ religion pure and undefiled with the God and Father is this, to look after orphans and widows in their tribulation -- unspotted to keep himself from the world.

¹² For I deliver the afflicted who is crying, And the fatherless who hath no helper.

¹³ The blessing of the perishing cometh on me, And the heart of the widow I cause to sing.

¹⁴ Righteousness I have put on, and it clotheth me, As a robe and a diadem my justice.

¹⁷ Seek judgment, make happy the oppressed, Judge the fatherless, strive `for' the widow.
