“O deliver not the soul of thy turtledove unto the multitude of the wicked: forget not the congregation of thy poor for ever.”
The plea not to deliver the soul of a turtledove to the wild beasts articulates the prayer for protection of the vulnerable and helpless. The reference to not forgetting the company of the afflicted establishes the petition for care of those suffering. This verse extends the prayer for divine protection to the entire community.
