If I have withheld the poor from their desire, Or have caused the eyes of the widow to fail,

If I kept back the desire of the poor; if the widow's eye was looking for help to no purpose;

Αν ηρνηθην την επιθυμιαν των πτωχων, η εμαρανα τους οφθαλμους της χηρας,

If I have withheld the poor from their desire, or have caused the eyes of the widow to fail;
