29:16 I was a father 1 to the needy,
and I investigated the case of the person I did not know;
38:28 Does the rain have a father,
or who has fathered the drops of the dew?
[29:16] 1 sn The word “father” does not have a wide range of meanings in the OT. But there are places that it is metaphorical, especially in a legal setting like this where the poor need aid.
