i1 [To the chief Musician. Altaschith. A Psalm or Song of Asaph.] i0 par Unto You, O God, we have given thanks, unto You we have given thanks; for Your wondrous works have declared that Your name is near.

Surely His salvation is near to those who fear Him, that glory may dwell in our land.

You are near, O Jehovah, and all Your Commandments are truth.

Jehovah is near to all who call upon Him, to all who call upon Him in truth.

Seek Jehovah while He may be found; call upon Him while He is near.

The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and a contrite heart, O God, You will not despise.

He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.

The Spirit of the Lord Jehovah is upon Me; because Jehovah has anointed Me to preach the Gospel to the poor; He has sent Me to bind up the broken-hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to those who are bound;

The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, because He has anointed Me to preach the gospel to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim deliverance to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to set free with deliverance those who are oppressed;

because your heart was tender, and you humbled yourself before Jehovah when you heard what I have spoken against this place and against its inhabitants, that they would become a desolation and a curse, and you tore your clothes and wept before Me, I also have heard you, says Jehovah.

For thus says the high and lofty One who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy: I dwell in the high and consecrated place, even with the contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones.

For all those My hand has made, and all those exist, says Jehovah. But to this one will I have regard: To the lowly and contrite of spirit, and the one who trembles at My Word.

I will also give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; I will take the heart of stone out of your flesh and give you a heart of flesh.

Then you will remember your evil ways and your deeds that were not good; and you will loathe yourselves in your own sight, for your iniquities and your abominations.
