Palavras de consolo
A Bíblia é repleta de palavras de consolo para os aflitos. Deus está perto dos que sofrem e promete enxugar toda lágrima, renovar a esperança e restaurar o coração partido.
Deus está conosco
O Senhor é refúgio e fortaleza. Mesmo no vale da sombra da morte, não precisamos temer — Ele está ao nosso lado para nos consolar.
Even when I walk through the valley dark as death, I'm not afraid of any evil, because you are right there with me; your rod and your staff protect me.
The Lord is my light and my salvation! How could anyone scare me? The Lord is my life's fortress! How could anyone terrify me?
The Lord is a place of safety for those who are oppressed, a fortress in times of trouble.
I only ask the Lord for one thing: I just want to live in the house of the Lord throughout my life, contemplating the Lord's goodness and thinking about his Temple.
When troubles come he will protect me and keep me safe, hiding me in his house, as secure as if he'd placed me on a high rock.
For you, Lord God, are my hope. You are the one I have trusted since I was young.
Consolação e esperança
Deus consola os humildes e exalta os abatidos. Ele nunca nos desamparará.
The Lord himself goes ahead of you. He will be with you. He won't ever leave you or abandon you. Don't be afraid and don't be discouraged."
Don't be afraid of them, for the Lord your God himself will be fighting on your side."
Don't forget what I told you: Be strong! Be brave! Don't be afraid! Don't get discouraged! For the Lord your God is with you wherever you go."
He exalts the humble, and rescues those who mourn.
Now may our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God the Father (who through his grace gave us eternal confidence and a trustworthy hope),
Descanso e renovação
Bem-aventurados os que choram, pois serão consolados. A Bíblia nos convida a descansar nos braços do Pai e encontrar paz para a alma.
Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.
Humble yourself before God's powerful hand so that he will lift you up at the appropriate time. Surrender all your worries to him, because he cares for you.
Show me a sign that you approve of me! Those who hate me will see it, and they will be ashamed because you, Lord, have helped me.
May your trustworthy love comfort me as you promised me, your servant.
When you rest, you won't be afraid; when you lie down, your sleep will be sweet.
Everything has its own time—a time for all that happens here:
A time of birth, and a time of death. A time of planting, and a time of harvest.
A time of killing, and a time of healing. A time of tearing down, and a time of building up.
A time of crying, and a time of laughing. A time of mourning, and a time of dancing.
A time of throwing away stones, and a time of gathering up stones. A time of embracing, and a time of avoiding embracing.
A time of searching, and a time of giving up searching. A time of keeping, and a time of throwing away.
A time of tearing, and a time of mending. A time of keeping quiet, a time of speaking up.
A time of loving, and a time of hating. A time of warfare, and a time of peace.
