13. The dying person blessed me.And I made the widow’s heart sing.
14. I put on right living as if it were clothing.I wore fairness as if it were my robe and my turban.
15. I tried to be eyes for the blind.And I tried to be feet for those who were crippled.
16. I was like a father to needy people.And I took the side of strangers when they were in trouble.
17. I broke the fangs of evil people.And I snatched from their teeth the people they wanted to hurt.
18. “I thought, ‘I will live for as many days as there are grains of sand.And I will die in my own house.
19. I will be like a tree whose roots reach down to the water.The dew will lie on the branches all night.
20. New honors will come to me continually.I will always have great strength.’
