Psalm 12:5
"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."
Context
5“Because of the devastation of the afflicted, because of the groaning of the needy,
         Now I will arise,” says the LORD; “I will set him in the safety for which he longs.”

6The words of the LORD are pure words;
         As silver tried in a furnace on the earth, refined seven times.

7You, O LORD, will keep them;
         You will preserve him from this generation forever.

8The wicked strut about on every side
         When vileness is exalted among the sons of men.
