Job 29:12 For I was a saviour to the poor when he was crying for help, to the child with no father, and to him who had no supporter.	Job 29:12 Porque libraba al pobre que gritaba, Y al huérfano que carecía de ayudador.
Job 29:13 The blessing of him who was near to destruction came on me, and I put a song of joy into the widow's heart.	Job 29:13 La bendición del que se iba á perder venía sobre mí; Y al corazón de la viuda daba alegría.
