Berean Standard Bible

“Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the LORD delivers him from them all.”

Psalms 34:19

Save as image

Study note

In the closing section of Psalm 34, David balances his promises of God's care with realism about suffering. The next verse speaks of God keeping all the bones of the righteous so that none is broken, which John applies to Jesus at the cross.
