Because he hath oppressed and hath forsaken the poor; because he hath violently taken away an house which he builded not;
Porque aplastó y abandonó a los pobres; porque se apoderó violentamente de una casa que no construyó;
Dios juzga a quienes oprimen a los pobres y toman por fuerza lo que no les pertenece.
