Psalm 34:18

“For what great nation is there that has a god so near to it as is Yahweh our God whenever we call on Him?

The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; A broken and a contrite heart, O God, You will not despise.

Surely His salvation is near to those who fear Him, That glory may dwell in our land.

Because he did not remember to show lovingkindness, But persecuted the afflicted, the needy man, And the disheartened to put them to death.

Near are You, O Yahweh, And all Your commandments are truth.

Yahweh is near to all who call upon Him, To all who call upon Him in truth.

He is the One who heals the brokenhearted And who binds up their wounds,

For thus says the One high and lifted up Who dwells forever, whose name is Holy, “I dwell on a high and holy place, And also with the crushed and lowly of spirit In order to revive the spirit of the lowly And to revive the heart of the crushed.

“For My hand made all these things, Thus all these things came into being,” declares Yahweh. “But to this one I will look, To him who is humble and contrite of spirit, and who trembles at My word.

And tear your heart and not your garments.” Now return to Yahweh your God, For He is gracious and compassionate, Slow to anger, abounding in lovingkindness, And relenting concerning evil.
