The verses around it, from Job 29.

10 The voices of the nobles were hushed, and their tongues stuck to the roofs of their mouths.

12 because I rescued the poor who cried out and the fatherless who had no helper.
13 The dying man blessed me, and I made the widow’s heart sing for joy.
14 I put on righteousness, and it clothed me; justice was my robe and my turban.

17 I shattered the fangs of the unjust and snatched the prey from his teeth.
