8HoweverH199, if I were youH589, I would appealH1875 toH413 GodH410 and layH7760 my causeH1700 beforeH413 HimH430—9the One who doesH6213 greatH1419 andH369 unsearchable thingsH2714, wondersH6381H5704 withoutH369 numberH4557.10He givesH5414 rainH4306 toH5921H6440 the earthH776 and sendsH7971 waterH4325 uponH5921H6440 the fieldsH2351.11He setsH7760 the lowlyH8217 on highH4791, so that mournersH6937 are liftedH7682 to safetyH3468.12He thwartsH6565 the schemesH4284 of the craftyH6175, so that their handsH3027 findH6213 noH3808 successH8454.13He catchesH3920 the wiseH2450 in their craftinessH6191,1 and sweeps awayH4116 the plansH6098 of the cunningH6617.14They encounterH6298 darknessH2822 by dayH3119 and gropeH4959 at noonH6672 as in the nightH3915.15He savesH3467 the needyH34 from the swordH2719 in their mouthH6310 and from the clutchesH3027 of the powerfulH2389.16So the poorH1800 haveH1961 hopeH8615, and injusticeH5766 shutsH7092 its mouthH6310.
