10 If you (A)faint in the day of adversity,
    your strength is small.
11 (B)Rescue those who are being taken away to death;
    hold back those who are stumbling to the slaughter.
12 If you say, “Behold, we did not know this,”
    (C)does not he who (D)weighs the heart perceive it?
Does not he who (E)keeps watch over your soul know it,
    and will he not repay man (F)according to his work?

And (E)does He who (F)watches over your soul not know it?
And will He not [a](G)repay a person according to his work?
