18 (A)For the needy shall not always be forgotten;
(B)The expectation of the poor shall not perish forever.
Psalm 12:5
New King James Version
5 “For the oppression of the poor, for the sighing of the needy,
Now I will arise,” says the Lord;
“I will set him in the safety for which he yearns.”
Psalm 146:6-10
New King James Version
6 (A)Who made heaven and earth,
The sea, and all that is in them;
Who keeps truth forever,
7 (B)Who executes justice for the oppressed,
(C)Who gives food to the hungry.
(D)The Lord gives freedom to the prisoners.
8 (E)The Lord opens the eyes of the blind;
(F)The Lord raises those who are bowed down;
The Lord loves the righteous.
9 (G)The Lord watches over the strangers;
He relieves the fatherless and widow;
(H)But the way of the wicked He [a]turns upside down.
10 (I)The Lord shall reign forever—
Your God, O Zion, to all generations.
Praise the Lord!
