19 Afin que ta confiance repose sur l’Éternel, Je veux t’instruire aujourd’hui, oui, toi.
20 N’ai-je pas déjà pour toi mis par écrit Des conseils et des réflexions,
21 Pour t’enseigner des choses sûres, des paroles vraies, Afin que tu répondes par des paroles vraies à celui qui t’envoie?
22 Ne dépouille pas le pauvre, parce qu’il est pauvre, Et n’opprime pas le malheureux à la porte;
23 Car l’Éternel défendra leur cause, Et il ôtera la vie à ceux qui les auront dépouillés.
