*1* “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” *2* “The LORD is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.” *3* “He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.” *4* “He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’ or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.”
