ગરીબો સાથે હું તેઓના પિતાની જેમ વર્તતો. જેઓને હું જાણતો ન હતો તેઓની અગત્ય જાણીને હું તેમને મદદ કરતો.
हिन्दीअय्यूब २९:१६
दरिद्र लोगों का मैं पिता ठहरता था, और जो मेरी पहचान का न था उसके मुकद्दमे का हाल मैं पूछताछ करके जान लेता था।

In context

17I broke the jaws of the unrighteous and plucked the prey out of his teeth.

18Then I said, ‘I will die in my own house, I will count my days as the sand.
