Psalms 34:19 Many [
are] the afflictions of the righteous:
but the LORD delivereth him out of them all.
Psalms 38:1-
8 [[A Psalm of David, to bring to remembrance.]] O LORD,
rebuke me not in thy wrath: neither chasten me in thy
hot displeasure. ... I am feeble and sore broken: I have
roared by reason of the disquietness of my heart.
Psalms 42:7 Deep calleth unto deep at the noise of thy waterspouts:
all thy waves and thy billows are gone over me.
Psalms 77:2-
4 In the day of
my trouble I sought the Lord: my
sore ran in the night, and ceased not: my soul refused to be comforted. ... Thou
holdest mine eyes waking:
I am so troubled that I cannot speak.
Habakkuk 3:17-
19 Although the fig tree shall not blossom, neither [
shall] fruit [
be] in the vines; the labour of the olive shall
fail, and the fields shall yield no meat; the flock shall be cut off from the fold, and [
there shall be] no herd in the stalls: ... The LORD God [
is]
my strength, and he will make my feet
like hinds' [
feet], and he will make me
to walk upon mine high places. To the chief singer on my
stringed instruments.
1 Corinthians 4:11-
13 Even
unto this present hour we both hunger, and thirst,
and are naked,
and are buffeted,
and have no certain dwellingplace; ... Being defamed, we intreat: we are made as the filth of the world, [
and are] the offscouring of all things unto this day.
2 Corinthians 4:8-
9 [
We are]
troubled on every side,
yet not distressed; [
we are] perplexed, but
not in despair; ... Persecuted,
but not forsaken;
cast down, but not destroyed;
