Job 22:5-9

22:5

[Is] not thy wickedness
<07451>

great
<07227>_?

and thine iniquities
<05771>

infinite
<07093>_?

22:6

For thou hast taken a pledge
<02254> (8799)

from thy brother
<0251>

for nought
<02600>_,

and stripped
<06584> (8686)

the naked
<06174>

of their clothing
<0899>_.

{the naked...: Heb. the clothes of the naked}

22:7

Thou hast not given water
<04325>

to the weary
<05889>

to drink
<08248> (8686)_,

and thou hast withholden
<04513> (8799)

bread
<03899>

from the hungry
<07457>_.

22:8

But [as for] the mighty
<02220>

man
<0376>_,

he had the earth
<0776>_;

and the honourable man
<05375> (8803) <06440>

dwelt
<03427> (8799)

in it. {mighty...: Heb. man of arm} {honourable...: Heb. eminent, or, accepted for countenance}

22:9

Thou hast sent
<07971> (8765)

widows
<0490>

away empty
<07387>_,

and the arms
<02220>

of the fatherless
<03490>

have been broken
<01792> (8792)_.

Nehemiah 5:2-13

5:2

For there were
<03426>

that said
<0559> (8802)_,

We, our sons
<01121>_,

and our daughters
<01323>_,

[are] many
<07227>_:

therefore we take up
<03947> (8799)

corn
<01715>

[for them], that we may eat
<0398> (8799)_,

and live
<02421> (8799)_.

5:3

[Some] also there were
<03426>

that said
<0559> (8802)_,

We have mortgaged
<06148> (8802)

our lands
<07704>_,

vineyards
<03754>_,

and houses
<01004>_,

that we might buy
<03947> (8799)

corn
<01715>_,

because of the dearth
<07458>_.

5:4

There were
<03426>

also that said
<0559> (8802)_,

We have borrowed
<03867> (8804)

money
<03701>

for the king's
<04428>

tribute
<04060>_,

[and that upon] our lands
<07704>

and vineyards
<03754>_.

5:5

Yet now our flesh
<01320>

[is] as the flesh
<01320>

of our brethren
<0251>_,

our children
<01121>

as their children
<01121>_:

and, lo, we bring into bondage
<03533> (8802)

our sons
<01121>

and our daughters
<01323>

to be servants
<05650>_,

and [some] of our daughters
<01323>

are
<03426>

brought unto bondage
<03533> (8737)

[already]: neither [is it] in our power
<0410> <03027>

[to redeem them]; for other men
<0312>

have our lands
<07704>

and vineyards
<03754>_.

5:6

And I was very
<03966>

angry
<02734> (8799)

when I heard
<08085> (8804)

their cry
<02201>

and these words
<01697>_.

5:7

Then I consulted
<04427> (8735)

with myself
<03820>_,

and I rebuked
<07378> (8799)

the nobles
<02715>_,

and the rulers
<05461>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)

unto them, Ye exact
<05378> (8801) (8678) <05383> (8802) (8675) <05375> (8802)

usury
<04855>_,

every one
<0376>

of his brother
<0251>_.

And I set
<05414> (8799)

a great
<01419>

assembly
<06952>

against them. {I consulted...: Heb. my heart consulted in me}

5:8

And I said
<0559> (8799)

unto them, We after our ability
<01767>

have redeemed
<07069> (8804)

our brethren
<0251>

the Jews
<03064>_,

which were sold
<04376> (8737)

unto the heathen
<01471>_;

and will ye even sell
<04376> (8799)

your brethren
<0251>_?

or shall they be sold
<04376> (8738)

unto us? Then held they their peace
<02790> (8686)_,

and found
<04672> (8804)

nothing
<01697>

[to answer].

5:9

Also I said
<0559> (8799)_,

It [is] not good
<02896>

that
<01697>

ye do
<06213> (8802)_:

ought ye not to walk
<03212> (8799)

in the fear
<03374>

of our God
<0430>

because of the reproach
<02781>

of the heathen
<01471>

our enemies
<0341> (8802)_?

5:10

I likewise, [and] my brethren
<0251>_,

and my servants
<05288>_,

might exact
<05383> (8802)

of them money
<03701>

and corn
<01715>_:

I pray you, let us leave off
<05800> (8799)

this usury
<04855>_.

5:11

Restore
<07725> (8685)_,

I pray you, to them, even this day
<03117>_,

their lands
<07704>_,

their vineyards
<03754>_,

their oliveyards
<02132>_,

and their houses
<01004>_,

also the hundredth
<03967>

[part] of the money
<03701>_,

and of the corn
<01715>_,

the wine
<08492>_,

and the oil
<03323>_,

that ye exact
<05383> (8802)

of them.

5:12

Then said
<0559> (8799)

they, We will restore
<07725> (8686)

[them], and will require
<01245> (8762)

nothing of them; so will we do
<06213> (8799)

as thou sayest
<0559> (8802)_.

Then I called
<07121> (8799)

the priests
<03548>_,

and took an oath
<07650> (8686)

of them, that they should do
<06213> (8800)

according to this promise
<01697>_.

5:13

Also I shook
<05287> (8804)

my lap
<02684>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

So God
<0430>

shake out
<05287> (8762)

every man
<0376>

from his house
<01004>_,

and from his labour
<03018>_,

that performeth
<06965> (8686)

not this promise
<01697>_,

even thus be he shaken out
<05287> (8803)_,

and emptied
<07386>_.

And all the congregation
<06951>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Amen
<0543>_,

and praised
<01984> (8762)

the LORD
<03068>_.

And the people
<05971>

did
<06213> (8799)

according to this promise
<01697>_.

{emptied: Heb. empty, or, void}

Psalms 72:12

72:12

For he shall deliver
<05337> (8686)

the needy
<034>

when he crieth
<07768> (8764)_;

the poor
<06041>

also, and [him] that hath no helper
<05826> (8802)_.

Psalms 82:2-4

82:2

How long will ye judge
<08199> (8799)

unjustly
<05766>_,

and accept
<05375> (8799)

the persons
<06440>

of the wicked
<07563>_?

Selah
<05542>_.

82:3

Defend
<08199> (8798)

the poor
<01800>

and fatherless
<03490>_:

do justice
<06663> (8685)

to the afflicted
<06041>

and needy
<07326> (8802)_.

{Defend: Heb. Judge}

82:4

Deliver
<06403> (8761)

the poor
<01800>

and needy
<034>_:

rid
<05337> (8685)

[them] out of the hand
<03027>

of the wicked
<07563>_.

Proverbs 21:13

21:13

Whoso stoppeth
<0331> (8801)

his ears
<0241>

at the cry
<02201>

of the poor
<01800>_,

he also shall cry
<07121> (8799)

himself, but shall not be heard
<06030> (8735)_.

Proverbs 24:11-12

24:11

If thou forbear
<02820> (8799)

to deliver
<05337> (8685)

[them that are] drawn
<03947> (8803)

unto death
<04194>_,

and [those that are] ready
<04131> (8801)

to be slain
<02027>_;

24:12

If thou sayest
<0559> (8799)_,

Behold, we knew
<03045> (8804)

it not; doth not he that pondereth
<08505> (8802)

the heart
<03826>

consider
<0995> (8799)

[it]? and he that keepeth
<05341> (8802)

thy soul
<05315>_,

doth [not] he know
<03045> (8799)

[it]? and shall [not] he render
<07725> (8689)

to [every] man
<0120>

according to his works
<06467>_?

22:16

He judged
<01777> (8804)

the cause
<01779>

of the poor

then [it was] well
<02896>

[with him: was] not this to know
<01847>

me? saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_.
