Evil Under the Sun

1 ^aAgain I ^bsaw all ^cthe oppressions that are done under the sun. And behold, the tears of the oppressed, and they had ^dno one to comfort them! On the side of their oppressors there was power, and there was no one to comfort them.

Isaiah 63:4-5

4 ^eFor the day of vengeance was in my heart,
and my year of redemption ^{▼▼Or the year of my redeemed} had come.
5 I looked, but ^gthere was no one to help;
I was appalled, but there was no one to uphold;
so my own arm brought me salvation,
and my wrath upheld me.
