5 – Thy people, O Lord, they have brought low: and they have afflicted thy inheritance.
6 – They have slain the widow and the stranger: and they have murdered the fatherless.
7 – And they have said: The Lord shall not see: neither shall the God of Jacob understand.
8 – Understand, ye senseless among the people: and, you fools, be wise at last.
9 – He that planted the ear, shall he not hear? or he that formed the eye, doth he not consider?

13 – That thou mayst give him rest from the evil days: till a pit be dug for the wicked.
14 – For the Lord will not cast off his people: neither will he forsake his own inheritance.
