3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort,4 who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.

3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort,4 who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.5 For as we share abundantly in Christ's sufferings, so through Christ we share abundantly in comfort too.6 If we are afflicted, it is for your comfort and salvation; and if we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which you experience when you patiently endure the same sufferings that we suffer.7 Our hope for you is unshaken; for we know that as you share in our sufferings, you will also share in our comfort.

5 For as we share abundantly in Christ's sufferings, so through Christ we share abundantly in comfort too.

24 You who fear the LORD, praise him! all you sons of Jacob, glorify him, and stand in awe of him, all you sons of Israel!

18 When the righteous cry for help, the LORD hears, and delivers them out of all their troubles.

3 He heals the brokenhearted, and binds up their wounds.

5 Sing praises to the LORD, O you his saints, and give thanks to his holy name.

1 To the choirmaster. A Psalm of the Sons of Korah. According to Alamoth. A Song.

22 His speech was smoother than butter, yet war was in his heart; his words were softer than oil, yet they were drawn swords.

8 so recompense them for their crime; in wrath cast down the peoples, O God!

9 and he judges the world with righteousness, he judges the peoples with equity.

2 I love thee, O LORD, my strength.

28 Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

28 Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me; for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.

4 "Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.

27 Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.

33 I have said this to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world."

22 So you have sorrow now, but I will see you again and your hearts will rejoice, and no one will take your joy from you.

6 Have no anxiety about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.

7 And the peace of God, which passes all understanding, will keep your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

3 and I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, "Behold, the dwelling of God is with men. He will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself will be with them;4 he will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning nor crying nor pain any more, for the former things have passed away."

5 And he who sat upon the throne said, "Behold, I make all things new." Also he said, "Write this, for these words are trustworthy and true."

13 May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope.

2 Do not be conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that you may prove what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.

10 fear not, for I am with you, be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my victorious right hand.

1 The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me, because the LORD has anointed me to bring good tidings to the afflicted; he has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to those who are bound;2 to proclaim the year of the LORD's favor, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all who mourn;3 to grant to those who mourn in Zion-- to give them a garland instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning, the mantle of praise instead of a faint spirit; that they may be called oaks of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he may be glorified.

13 As one whom his mother comforts, so I will comfort you; you shall be comforted in Jerusalem.

8 It is the LORD who goes before you; he will be with you, he will not fail you or forsake you; do not fear or be dismayed."

5 Keep your life free from love of money, and be content with what you have; for he has said, "I will never fail you nor forsake you."

7 The LORD is good, a stronghold in the day of trouble; he knows those who take refuge in him.

17 The LORD, your God, is in your midst, a warrior who gives victory; he will rejoice over you with gladness, he will renew you in his love; he will exult over you with loud singing

11 For I know the plans I have for you, says the LORD, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.

17 Therefore, if any one is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has passed away, behold, the new has come.

19 Therefore let those who suffer according to God's will do right and entrust their souls to a faithful Creator.

6 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that in due time he may exalt you.7 Cast all your anxieties on him, for he cares about you.

4 he restores my soul. He leads me in paths of righteousness for his name's sake.

4 Though a host encamp against me, my heart shall not fear; though war arise against me, yet I will be confident.5 One thing have I asked of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to inquire in his temple.

50 This is my comfort in my affliction that thy promise gives me life.

11 he sets on high those who are lowly, and those who mourn are lifted to safety.

29 Jesus said, "Truly, I say to you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or lands, for my sake and for the gospel,30 who will not receive a hundredfold now in this time, houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and lands, with persecutions, and in the age to come eternal life.

16 And I will pray the Father, and he will give you another Counselor, to be with you for ever,17 even the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees him nor knows him; you know him, for he dwells with you, and will be in you.18 "I will not leave you desolate; I will come to you.
