21 if I have raised my hand against the fatherless,

knowing that I had influence in court,

21 If I have lifted up my hand against the fatherless,

When I saw my help in the gate:

21 “If I raised my hand against an orphan,

knowing the judges would take my side,

21 If I have raised my hand against the fatherless,

When I saw I had help in the gate;

21 I have never hurt an orphan

even when I knew I could win in court.

21 If I have lifted up my hand against the fatherless,

Because I saw my help in the gate:

21 If I have lifted up my hand against an orphan, because I saw my help in the gate:

21 If I have shaken my fist at an orphan 

because I knew that others would back me up in court, 

21 if I ever cast my vote against a fatherless child

when I saw that I had support in the city gate,

21 if I have raised my hand against the orphan,

because I saw I had supporters at the gate;

21 if I have raised my hand against an orphan

because I saw my supporters at the gate,

21 Suppose I’ve raised my hand

against children whose fathers have died.

And I did it because I knew

I had power in the courts.

21 If I have lifted up my hand against the orphan,

Because I saw I had support in the gate,
