Musar su Salmi 69:34

Come and see what is stated in the Zohar, Parashas Beshalach (61a) regarding the special concern Providence shows towards the poor and the needy: Rabbi Chiya said, “I am very perplexed by the verse, ‘For Hashem hears the needy’ (Tehillim 69:34). Does He hear only the needy and not others?” Rabbi Shimon said, “It is because the needy are closer to the king. For it is stated, ‘God will not despise a heart that is broken and contrite’ (Tehillim 51:19), and there is no one in the world more broken hearted than the poor.” Rabbi Shimon ben Yochai said further, “Come and see. All the inhabitants of the world appear before the Holy One Blessed is He in body and soul, whereas the poor man appears before Him in soul alone. And the Holy One Blessed is He is closer to the soul than to the body.”
