Hear this, O ye that swallow up the needy, even to make the poor of the land to fail,

He that saith unto the wicked, Thou {art} righteous; him shall the people curse, nations shall abhor him:

He that saith unto the wicked, Thou {art} righteous; him shall the people curse, nations shall abhor him:

He that giveth unto the poor shall not lack: but he that hideth his eyes shall have many a curse.

And they said, Thou hast saved our lives: let us find grace in the sight of my lord, and we will be Pharaoh's servants.
