Verse 13 is found in chapter 72 of Psalms. Psalm 72 is a prayer for the ideal king, characterized by justice, defense of the poor, and abundance for the people. The well-being of the kingdom is measured especially by how the needy are treated and by the ruler’s ability to combat oppression. The horizon becomes universal when nations and kings recognize his authority. The conclusion attributes marvelous works exclusively to the God of Israel and closes the second book of the Psalter.

Er wird gnädig sein den Geringen und Armen, und den Seelen der Armen wird er helfen.
Tendrá misericordia del pobre y del menesteroso, Y salvará las almas de los pobres.
Tendrá compasión del débil y del necesitado, y salvará la vida de los necesitados.
Il aura pitié du misérable et de l'indigent, Et il sauvera la vie des pauvres;
Egli avrà compassione del misero e del bisognoso, E salverà le persone de’ poveri.
Compadecer-se-á do pobre e do aflito, e salvará as almas dos necessitados.
他要憐憫貧寒和貧窮的人, 拯救貧窮人的性命。
