Which devour widows' houses, and for a shew make long prayers: the same shall receive greater damnation. Which devour widows' houses, and for a pretence make long prayers: these shall receive greater damnation. (To the chief Musician upon Aijeleth Shahar, A Psalm of David.) My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? why art thou so far from helping me, and from the words of my roaring? I say therefore to the unmarried and widows, It is good for them if they abide even as I. Ye also helping together by prayer for us, that for the gift bestowed upon us by the means of many persons thanks may be given by many on our behalf. If any man or woman that believeth have widows, let them relieve them, and let not the church be charged that it may relieve them that are widows indeed. We are orphans and fatherless, our mothers are as widows.
