39  When they are diminished and brought low

through oppression, evil, and sorrow,

40  ^hhe pours contempt on princes

and ⁱmakes them wander ^jin trackless wastes;

41  but ^khe raises up the needy out of affliction

and ^lmakes their families like flocks.

42  ^mThe upright see it and are glad,

and ⁿall wickedness shuts its mouth.
