15 Loyalty is gone,
    and people who try to do good are robbed.

The Lord looked and saw there was no justice.
    He did not like what he saw.
16 He did not see anyone speak up for the people.
    He was shocked to see that no one stood up for them.
So with his own power he saved them.
    His desire to do what is right gave him strength.
17 He put on the armor of goodness,
    the helmet of salvation,
the uniform of punishment,
    and the coat of strong love.[a]
