12. Arise, O LORD; O God, lift up thy hand: forget not the humble.
13. Why doth the wicked contemn God? he hath said in his heart, Thou wilt not require it.
14. Thou hast seen it; for thou beholdest mischief and spite, to requite it with thy hand: the poor committeth himself to thee; thou art the helper of the fatherless.
15. Break thou the arm of the wicked and the evil man: seek out his wickedness till thou shalt find none.
16. The LORD is King for ever and ever: the heathen have perished out of his land.
17. LORD, thou hast heard the desire of the humble: thou wilt prepare their heart, thou wilt cause thy ear to hear:
18. To judge the fatherless and the oppressed, that the man of the earth may no more oppress.
