“I have seen his ways, but I will heal him.”

“I am the Lord, your healer.”

O Lord, you have searched me and known me! You know when I sit down and when I rise up; you discern my thoughts from afar. You search out my path and my lying down and are acquainted with all my ways.—You have set our iniquities before you, our secret sins in the light of your presence.—All are naked and exposed to the eyes of him to whom we must give account.

“Come now, let us reason together, says the Lord: though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red like crimson, they shall become like wool.”—“He is merciful to him, and says, ‘Deliver him from going down into the pit; I have found a ransom.’”—But he was wounded for our transgressions; he was crushed for our iniquities; upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace, and with his stripes we are healed.—He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted.—“Your faith has made you well; go in peace, and be healed of your disease.”

The Lord is on my side as my helper.

May the Lord answer you in the day of trouble! May the name of the God of Jacob protect you! May he send you help from the sanctuary and give you support from Zion!… May we shout for joy over your salvation, and in the name of our God set up our banners!… Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the Lord our God. They collapse and fall, but we rise and stand upright.

He will come like a rushing stream, which the wind of the Lord drives.—No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.—If God is for us, who can be against us?—The Lord is on my side; I will not fear.—“Our God whom we serve is able to deliver us,… and he will deliver us.”
