8And he will judge the world in righteousness, He will minister judgment to the peoples in uprightness. 9Jehovah also will be a high tower for the oppressed, A high tower in times of trouble; And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee; For thou, Jehovah, hast not forsaken them that seek thee. 11Sing praises to Jehovah, who dwelleth in Zion: Declare among the people his doings. 12For he that maketh inquisition for blood remembereth them; He forgetteth not the cry of the poor.
