when he responds to the prayer of the destitute, and does not reject their request.

But you remain; your years do not come to an end.

Praise the Lord, O my soul! Do not forget all his kind deeds!

All of your creatures wait for you to provide them with food on a regular basis.

For too long I have had to reside with those who hate peace.

May your priests be clothed with integrity! May your loyal followers shout for joy!

I will protect her priests, and her godly people will shout exuberantly.

For the Lord takes delight in his people; he exalts the oppressed by delivering them.

A worthless and wicked person walks around saying perverse things;

haughty eyes, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,

For at the window of my house through my window lattice I looked out

by me princes rule, as well as nobles and all righteous judges.
