But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and reprove with equity for the meek of the earth: and he shall smite the earth with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked.
Isaiah 11:4
Judge not the poor or view the meek
as burdens with a prospect bleak.
In humbleness a child was born
without a home and doomed to scorn,
who rose redeeming in the air
and soon will smite the earth with care
so that the greedy and purse proud
are slain, but others stay unbowed.
May I, O Lord, be of that throng
who shelter 'neath thy wing span strong!
