12 because I delivered the poor who cried, and the fatherless also, who had no one to help him,

13 the blessing of him who was ready to perish came on me, and I caused the widow’s heart to sing for joy.

14 I put on righteousness, and it clothed me. My justice was as a robe and a diadem.

15 I was eyes to the blind, and feet to the lame.

16 I was a father to the needy. I researched the cause of him whom I didn’t know.
