7When I wentH3318 outH3318 to 1the gateH8179 of the cityH7176, When I 2tookH3559 my seatH4186 in the publicH7339 squareH7339,8The youngH5288 menH5288 sawH7200 me and hidH2244 themselves, And the oldH3453 menH3453 aroseH6965 and stoodH5975.9The leadersH8269 3stoppedH6113 talkingH4405 And 4putH7760 their handsH3709 on their mouthsH6310;10The voicesH6963 of the prominentH5057 peopleH5057 were 56hushedH2244, And their 7tonguesH3956 stuckH1692 to their palatesH2441.11For when 8an earH241 heardH8085, it calledH833 me blessedH833, And when an eyeH5869 sawH7200, it testifiedH5749 inH5749 supportH5749 ofH5749 me,12BecauseH3588 I savedH4422 9the poorH6041 who criedH7768 forH7768 helpH7768, And the 10orphanH3490 who had noH3808 helperH5826.13The blessingH1293 of the one who 11was about to perishH6 cameH935 upon me, And I made the 12widow’sH490 heartH3820 singH7442 forH7442 joyH7442.14I 13putH3847 onH3847 righteousnessH6664, and it clothedH3847 me; My justiceH4941 was like a robeH4598 and a headbandH6797.
