37:14 Evil men draw their swords
and prepare their bows,
to bring down 1 the oppressed and needy,
and to slaughter those who are godly. 2
37:15 Their swords will pierce 3 their own hearts,
and their bows will be broken.
68:3 But the godly 4 are happy;
they rejoice before God
and are overcome with joy. 5
137:8 O daughter Babylon, soon to be devastated! 6
How blessed will be the one who repays you
for what you dished out to us! 7
146:6 the one who made heaven and earth,
the sea, and all that is in them,
who remains forever faithful, 8
146:7 vindicates the oppressed, 9
and gives food to the hungry.
The Lord releases the imprisoned.
146:8 The Lord gives sight to the blind.
The Lord lifts up all who are bent over. 10
The Lord loves the godly.
146:9 The Lord protects those residing outside their native land;
he lifts up the fatherless and the widow, 11
but he opposes the wicked. 12
