day no. 14,024: open your mouth

Proverbs 31:8-9
Open your mouth for the mute,
for the rights of all who are destitute.
Open your mouth, judge righteously,
defend the rights of the poor and needy.
 
Open your mouth.
If no one speaks on their behalf, the voiceless will not be heard.
 
Open your mouth.
If no one upholds their rights, the powerless will be trampled under foot.
 
Open your mouth.
If no one judges justly, the marginalized will be pushed beyond the margins.
 
Open your mouth.
If no one defends them, the defenseless will be victimized.
 
Open your mouth.
