12
Do not think to corrupt with gifts; for such he will not receive: and trust not to unrighteous sacrifices; for the Lord is judge, and with him is no respect of persons.
13
He will not accept any person against a poor man, but will hear the prayer of the oppressed.
14
He will not despise the supplication of the fatherless; nor the widow, when she poureth out her complaint.
15
Do not the tears run down the widow's cheeks? and is not her cry against him that causeth them to fall?
16
He that serveth the Lord shall be accepted with favour, and his prayer shall reach unto the clouds.
17
The prayer of the humble pierceth the clouds: and till it come nigh, he will not be comforted; and will not depart, till the most High shall behold to judge righteously, and execute judgment.
