LEB(i)
7 "At my going out the gate to the city, I secured my seat in the square.
8 Young men saw me and stepped aside, and the aged rose up and stood.
9 Officials refrained from talking, and they laid their hand on their mouth.
10 The voices* of nobles were hushed, and their tongue stuck to their palate.
11 "When the ear heard and commended me, and the eye saw and testified in support of me
12 because I saved the needy who cried for help, and I saved* the orphan for whom there was no helper.
13 The blessing of the wretched came upon me, and I caused the widow's heart to sing for joy.
14 I put on righteousness, and it clothed me; my justice was like a robe and a headband.
15 "I was eyes to the blind, and I was feet to the lame.
16 I was a father to the poor, and I investigated ⌊the stranger's⌋* legal dispute.
17 And I broke the evil one's jaw bones, and I made his prey drop from his teeth.
