Oppression

“The LORD is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble.”

“from the wicked who assail me, from my mortal enemies who surround me.”

“Why do You hide Your face and forget our affliction and oppression?”

“I have done what is just and right; do not leave me to my oppressors.”

“Redeem me from the oppression of man, that I may keep Your precepts.”

“I chirp like a swallow or crane; I moan like a dove. My eyes grow weak as I look upward. O Lord, I am oppressed; be my security.””

““For the cause of the oppressed and for the groaning of the needy, I will now arise,” says the LORD. “I will bring safety to him who yearns.””

“May he vindicate the afflicted among the people; may he save the children of the needy and crush the oppressor.”
