12  For he who ^wavenges blood is mindful of them;

he ^xdoes not forget the cry of the afflicted.

3  ^tGive justice to ^uthe weak and the fatherless;

^vmaintain the right of the afflicted and the destitute.

4  ^wRescue the weak and the needy;

^xdeliver them from the hand of the wicked.”

12  I know that the Lord will ^pmaintain the cause of the afflicted,

and ^qwill execute justice for the needy.
