Consider carefully, act justly;
    at high noon provide your shade like night.
Hide the outcasts;
    keep the fugitives hidden.
Let the outcasts of Moab live among you.
    Be a hiding place for them from the destroyer.
When the oppressor is no more,
    when destruction has ceased,
    when the trampler has vanished from the land,
    a throne will be established based on goodness,
        and someone will sit faithfully on it in David’s dwelling[a]
    a judge who seeks justice and timely righteousness.
