Psalms 140:12

I know ¹  that the Lord defends the cause of the oppressed and vindicates the poor. ² 

I know that the LORD secures justice for the poor and upholds the cause of the needy.

I know that the LORD will maintain the cause of the afflicted And justice for the poor.

But I know the LORD will surely help those they persecute; he will maintain the rights of the poor.

I know that you, GOD, are on the side of victims, that you care for the rights of the poor.

I am certain that the Lord will take care of the cause of the poor, and of the rights of those who are troubled.

I know that the LORD maintains the cause of the needy, and executes justice for the poor.

I know that the LORD will maintain The cause of the afflicted, And justice for the poor.

I know ¹  that the Lord defends the cause of the oppressed and vindicates the poor. ² 

¹ tc The translation follows the Qere and many medieval Hebrew mss in reading a first person verb form here. The Kethib reads the second person.

² tn Heb “and the just cause of the poor.”
