19 This was when you were few in number,

Yes, very few, and you were foreigners in the land.+

20 They walked about from nation to nation,

From one kingdom to another people.+

21 He did not allow any man to oppress them,+

But on their account he reproved kings,+

22 Saying, ‘Do not touch my anointed ones,

And to my prophets do nothing bad.’+
