“The Lord is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit.”

“The LORD is near the brokenhearted; he delivers those who are discouraged.”
“I will give thanks to thee in a great church; I will praise thee in a strong people.”
“The Lord is near the broken-hearted; he is the saviour of those whose spirits are crushed down.”
“The Lord is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit.”
And they have been joyful against me, and they joined together. Scourges have been gathered over me, and I was ignorant of it.
They have been scattered, yet they were unremorseful. They have tested me. They scoffed at me with scorn. They gnashed their teeth over me.
Lord, when will you look down upon me? Restore my soul from before their malice, my only one from before the lions.
I will confess to you in a great Church. I will praise you among a weighty people.
May those who are my unjust adversaries not be glad over me: those who have hated me without cause, and who nod agreement with their eyes.
For indeed, they spoke peacefully to me; and speaking with passion to the earth, they intended deceit.
And they opened their mouth wide over me. They said, “Well, well, our eyes have seen.”
