For the oppression of the poor, for the sighing of the needy, now will I arise, saith the LORD; I will set him in safety from him that puffeth at him.

Let the sighing of the prisoner come before thee; according to the greatness of thy power preserve thou those that are appointed to die;

To hear the groaning of the prisoner; to loose those that are appointed to death;

And this have ye done again, covering the altar of the LORD with tears, with weeping, and with crying out, insomuch that he regardeth not the offering any more, or receiveth it with good will at your hand.
