4whenH834 I wasH1961 in my primeH3117H2779,1 when the friendshipH5475 of GodH433 rested onH5921 my tentH168,5when the AlmightyH7706 was stillH5750 with meH5978 and my childrenH5288 were around meH5439,6when my stepsH1978 were bathedH7364 in creamH2529 and the rockH6697 poured outH6694 for meH5978 streamsH6388 of oilH8081!
7When I went outH3318 to the cityH7176 gateH8179H5921and tookH3559 my seatH4186 in the public squareH7339,8the young menH5288 saw meH7200 and withdrewH2244,and the old menH3453 roseH6965 to their feetH5975.9The princesH8269 refrainedH6113 from speakingH4405and coveredH7760 their mouthsH6310 with their handsH3709.10The voicesH6963 of the noblesH5057 were hushedH2244,and their tonguesH3956 stuckH1692 to the roofs of their mouthsH2441.11ForH3588 thoseH241 who heard meH8085 called me blessedH833,and those whoH5869 saw meH7200 commended meH5749,12becauseH3588 I rescuedH4422 the poorH6041 who cried outH7768and the fatherlessH3490 who had noH3808 helperH5826.13The dying manH6H5921H935 blessed meH1293,and I made the widow’sH490 heartH3820 sing for joyH7442.14I put onH3847 righteousnessH6664, and it clothed meH3847;justiceH4941 was my robeH4598 and my turbanH6797.15IH1961 served as eyesH5869 to the blindH5787and as feetH7272 to the lameH6455.16IH595 was a fatherH1 to the needyH34,and I took upH2713 the caseH7379 of the strangerH3808H3045.
