If there be among you a poor man of one of thy brethren within any of thy gates in thy land which the LORD thy God giveth thee, thou shalt not harden thine heart, nor shut thine hand from thy poor brother:

So the poor hath hope, and iniquity stoppeth her mouth.

They are exalted for a little while, but are gone and brought low; they are taken out of the way as all other, and cut off as the tops of the ears of corn.

Hath God forgotten to be gracious? hath he in anger shut up his tender mercies? Selah.

The righteous shall see it, and rejoice: and all iniquity shall stop her mouth.

The voice of my beloved! behold, he cometh leaping upon the mountains, skipping upon the hills.

So shall he sprinkle many nations; the kings shall shut their mouths at him: for that which had not been told them shall they see; and that which they had not heard shall they consider.
