*1.* “If the world hates you, know that it has hated me before it hated you.” *2* “When the righteous cry for help, the Lord hears and delivers them out of all their troubles. The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit. Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the Lord delivers him out of them all. He keeps all his bones; not one of them is broken.” *3* “As you come to him, a living stone rejected by men but in the sight of God chosen and precious, For my father and my mother have forsaken me, but the Lord will take me in.” *4* “But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me.”
