18. The lord is close to the brokenhearted;he rescues those whose spirits are crushed.
19. The righteous person faces many troubles,but the lord comes to the rescue each time.
20. For the lord protects the bones of the righteous;not one of them is broken!
21. Calamity will surely destroy the wicked,and those who hate the righteous will be punished.
22. But the lord will redeem those who serve him.No one who takes refuge in him will be condemned.
