Psalms 72:13

"For he will deliver the needy when he cries; the poor, who has no helper."

Key Reflection

This verse highlights God's role as the ultimate protector and provider for the marginalized and oppressed. It emphasizes that in times of distress, those without support can find deliverance and relief through divine intervention.

From the Scholars: Barnes' Notes

He shall spare the poor and needy -He will have pity on; he will show mercy or favor to them. And shall save the souls of the needy -Will guard and defend them; will be their protector and friend. His administration will have special respect to those who are commonly overlooked, and who are exposed to oppression and wrong.
