Psalms 34:18-19. The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit. Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivereth him out of them all.
The first line seemed to have something terrible in it: "Many are the afflictions of the righteous", but there is a blessed "but" that comes in -thrown like the tree into Marah’s bitter stream to sweeten it all.
