Explanation:

The word "justice" in the context likely means fairness or a just outcome, which is closest in meaning to "equity". "Equity" implies a sense of fairness and equality in distribution or treatment. "Reparation" is more about making amends for past wrongs, "acquiescence" is about passive acceptance, and "sympathy" is about feelings of pity or compassion.
