God doth build up Jerusalem; and he it is alone That the dispers'd of Israel doth gather into one.

For he despis'd not nor abhorr'd th' afflicted's misery; Nor from him hid his face, but heard when he to him did cry.

Let thou their eyes so darken'd be, that sight may them forsake; And let their loins be made by thee continually to shake.

For he the needy shall preserve, when he to him doth call; The poor also, and him that hath no help of man at all.

For they that needy are shall not forgotten be alway; The expectation of the poor shall not be lost for aye.
