Psalms 10:8-18
He sits in the lurking places of the villages; In the secret places he murders the innocent; His eyes are secretly fixed on the helpless.He lies in wait secretly, as a lion in his den; He lies in wait to catch the poor; He catches the poor when he draws him into his net.So he crouches, he lies low, That the helpless may fall by his strength.He has said in his heart,“ God has forgotten; He hides His face; He will never see.”Arise, O Lord! O God, lift up Your hand! Do not forget the humble.Why do the wicked renounce God? He has said in his heart,“ You will not require an account.”But You have seen, for You observe trouble and grief, To repay it by Your hand. The helpless commits himself to You; You are the helper of the fatherless.Break the arm of the wicked and the evil man; Seek out his wickedness until You find none.The Lord is King forever and ever; The nations have perished out of His land.Lord, You have heard the desire of the humble; You will prepare their heart; You will cause Your ear to hear,To do justice to the fatherless and the oppressed, That the man of the earth may oppress no more.

Luke 20:19-26
And the chief priests and the scribes that very hour sought to lay hands on Him, but they feared the people— for they knew He had spoken this parable against them.So they watched Him, and sent spies who pretended to be righteous, that they might seize on His words, in order to deliver Him to the power and the authority of the governor.Then they asked Him, saying,“ Teacher, we know that You say and teach rightly, and You do not show personal favoritism, but teach the way of God in truth:Is it lawful for us to pay taxes to Caesar or not?”But He perceived their craftiness, and said to them,“ Why do you test Me?Show Me a denarius. Whose image and inscription does it have?” They answered and said,“ Caesar’s.”And He said to them,“ Render therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.”But they could not catch Him in His words in the presence of the people. And they marveled at His answer and kept silent.
