Broken Hearted

BROKEN HEARTED

Psa 34:18ff, 18 The Lord is there to rescue

all who are discouraged

and have given up hope. (prophetic) (CEV)

Psa 69, Power Ps for the broken.

20 Their insults have broken my heart,

and I am in despair.

If only one person would show some pity;

if only one would turn and comfort me. (NLT)

[1]

61 The Spirit of the Lord God

has taken control of me!

The Lord has chosen and sent me

to tell the oppressed

the good news,

to heal the brokenhearted,

and to announce freedom

for prisoners and captives.

is to feel sorrow

deep in our hearts.

This is the kind of sacrifice

you won’t refuse.
