14. He will in no wise despise the supplication of the fatherless; Nor the widow, when she pours out her tale.
15. Do not the tears of the widow run down her cheek? And is not her cry against him that has caused them to fall?
16. He that serves God according to his good pleasure shall be accepted, And his supplication shall reach to the clouds.
17. The prayer of the humble pierces the clouds; And till it come near, he will not be comforted; And he will not depart, till the Most High shall visit; And he shall judge righteously, and execute judgement.
18. And the Lord will not be slack, neither will he be longsuffering toward them, Till he have crushed the loins of the unmerciful; And he shall repay vengeance to the heathen; Till he have taken away the multitude of the haughty, And broken in pieces the sceptres of the unrighteous;
19. Till he have rendered to every man according to his doings, And to the works of men according to their devices; Till he have judged the cause of his people; And he shall make them to rejoice in his mercy.
