If thou faint in the day of adversity, thy strength is small.—Prov 24.10
He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength.—My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness.—He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him.—The eternal God is thy refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms: and he shall thrust out the enemy from before thee.
I looked for some to take pity, but there was none; and for comforters, but I found none.
Every high priest taken from among men is ordained for men in things pertaining to God, … who can have compassion on the ignorant, and on them that are out of the way: so also Christ, … though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered; and being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him.—Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows.
