"Because¹ thine heartª was tender,ª° and thou hast humbled²° thyself¹ beforeª¹ the LORD,ª when thou heardestª° what¹ I spakeª° against¹ this¹ place,ª and against¹ the inhabitantsª° thereof, that they should become¹ a desolationª and a curse,ª and hast rentª°¹ thy clothes,ª and weptª° beforeª me; I¹ also¹ have heardª° [thee], saithª° the LORD.ª" {2Kg 22:19} + "The LORDª [is] nighª unto them that are of a brokenª° heart;ª and savethª° such as be of a contriteª spirit.ª" {Psa 34:18} + "The sacrificesª of Godª [are] a brokenª° spirit:ª a brokenª° and a contriteª° heart,ª O God,ª thou wilt not¹ despise.ª°" {Psa 51:17} + "For¹ thus¹ saithª° the highª° and lofty Oneª° that inhabitethª° eternity,ª whose nameª [is] Holy;ª I dwellª° in the highª and holyª [place], with¹ him also [that is] of a contriteª and humbleª spirit,ª to reviveª° the spiritª of the humble,ª and to reviveª° the heartª of the contrite ones.ª°" {Isa 57:15} + "For all¹ those¹ [things] hath mine handª made,ª° and all¹ those¹ [things] have been,¹ saithª° the LORD:ª but to¹ this¹ [man] will I look,ª° [even] to¹ [him that is] poorª and of a contriteª spirit,ª and tremblethª at¹ my word.ª" {Isa 66:2} + "And the LORDª saidª° unto¹ him, Go throughª° the midstª of the city,ª through the midstª of Jerusalem,ª and setª° a markª upon¹ the foreheadsª of the men²¹ that sighª° and that cryª° for¹ all¹ the abominationsª that be doneª° in the midstª thereof." {Ezk 9:4} + "Blessedª [are] the¹ poorª in spirit:ª forª theirsª isª° the¹ kingdomª of heaven.ª ...
