耶和華說：「因為困苦人所受的迫害和貧窮人的呻吟，我現在要挺身而起，把他們安置在他們渴望的穩妥之地。」

因為你是作我保障的神。你為什麼拋棄了我呢？我又為什麼因仇敵的壓迫時常哀痛徘徊呢？

神哪，求你恩待我！因為世人踐踏我，與我爭戰的人終日壓迫我。我的仇敵終日踐踏我，狂傲地與我爭戰的人實在多！

那城裡有一個寡婦，經常到他那裡去，說：『請為我向我的對頭討個公道。』「法官一直不肯，但是後來心裡說：『即使我不敬畏神，也不尊重人，還是因為這寡婦不斷地煩擾我，我就為她討個公道，免得她一直來，到最後使我疲憊不堪！』」主接著說：「你們當聽這個不公義的審判官所說的！難道神絕不會給那些他所揀選、日夜向他呼求的人主持公道嗎？難道神會耽誤幫助他們嗎？

求你留心聽、回應我！我在苦惱中煩躁不安，發出哀嘆；這是因仇敵的聲音、因惡人壓迫的緣故；是的，他們使壞事落在我身上，並在怒氣中逼迫我。
