Listen to this, you who trample the needy, and do away with the destitute in the land.

when God arose to execute judgment, and to deliver all the oppressed of the earth. (Selah)

Seek the Lord’s favor, all you humble people of the land who have obeyed his commands! Strive to do what is right! Strive to be humble! Maybe you will be protected on the day of the Lord’s angry judgment.
