Verse 6

"Ye put to shame the counsel of the poor, Because Jehovah is his refuge."

Delitzsch pointed out that the text here is damaged and that the meaning is difficult to determine, He suggested that, Whatever plans and intentions of godly men to do for the glory of God, these are the counsels of the poor which, "The children of the world, who are in possession of worldly power seek to frustrate."[9]

In the picture of the total depravity of mankind that emerges here, whatever good may be intended or advocated by anyone, the possessors of worldly power will move to frustrate any such good intentions.
