Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves; 

ensure justice for those being crushed.

Yes, 

speak up for the poor and helpless, 

and see that they get justice. 

Proverbs 31:1-9 NLT

Who are the invisible?

Those who have no voice.

Who are the ones who cannot speak for themselves?

Those who have no voice.

Having a voice somewhere is what makes us human. It was the voice of God that brought all we know into existence, Jesus was named the logos, the word, he spoke healing and hope.

The first interactions of people with God required voice. 

We're made in God's image and that includes having a voice.

Some of our deepest hurt comes when we believe we have no voice.

In this Proverb, King Lemuel's mum encourages us to restore the voice of those it has been taken from.

That is the start of justice.

This may be the holiest work there is.
