11 When the ear heard, it called me blessed,
    and when the eye saw, it approved,
12 because I (A)delivered the poor who cried for help,
    and the fatherless who had none to help him.
13 (B)The blessing of him who was (C)about to perish came upon me,
    and I caused (D)the widow's heart to sing for joy.
14 I (E)put on righteousness, and it clothed me;
    my justice was like a robe and (F)a turban.
15 I was (G)eyes to the blind
    and feet to the lame.
16 I was a father to the needy,
    and I searched out (H)the cause of him whom I did not know.
17 I (I)broke (J)the fangs of the unrighteous
    and made him drop his prey from his teeth.
