14. I wore my righteousness like a garment;justice was my robe and my turban.
15. I was eyes to the blind,and feet to the lame was I.
16. I was a father to the poor;the complaint of the stranger I pursued,
17. And I broke the jaws of the wicked man;from his teeth I forced the prey.
18. I said: “In my own nest I shall grow old;I shall multiply years like the phoenix.
19. My root is spread out to the waters;the dew rests by night on my branches.
