7 Who executes justice for the oppressed,
Who gives food to the hungry.
The Lord sets free the prisoners.
8 The Lord opens the eyes of the blind;
The Lord lifts up those who are bowed down;
The Lord loves the 146:8 I.e. those whose moral and spiritual integrity places them in right standing with God.righteous [the upright in heart]. [Luke 13:13; John 9:7, 32]
9 The Lord protects the strangers;
He supports the fatherless and the widow;
But He makes crooked the way of the wicked.
