Don’t let those wild animals take your dove!\par Don’t forget your poor people forever.\par
Lord, get up and do something!\par God, punish those bad people!\par Don’t forget the poor people!\par
Your animals came back to that land.\par God, you gave many good things\par to the poor people there.\par
They will get the dove wings\par covered with silver.\par They will get the wings\par sparkling with gold.”\par
Help the king judge your people fairly.\par Help him make wise decisions for your poor people.\par
Sometimes it seems that God forgets about people with troubles.\par It seems those poor people have no hope.\par But God doesn’t really forget them forever.\par
Look at the people!\par They are hurrying to you\par like clouds quickly crossing the sky.\par They are like doves flying to their nests.\par
I will let only meek and humble people stay in my city (Jerusalem). And they will trust the Lord’s name.
“Listen! I am sending you, and you will be like sheep among wolves. So be smart like snakes. But also be like doves and do nothing wrong.
