Proverbs31:8
8 Open thy mouth for the dumb in the cause of all such as are appointed to destruction .
Speak freely and impartially, as becomes a King and Judg to do.
For such as cannot speak in their own Cause, either through Ignorance and Infirmity: or because of the dread of their more potent Adversaries, or of the Majesty of the King sitting in judgment.
Who without such succour from the Judge, are like to be utterly ruined, whom therefore both Justice and Charity oblige thee to preserve.
