压伤的芦苇他不折断(太12：20)。
神所要的祭，就是忧伤的灵。 神啊，忧伤痛悔的心，你必不轻看(诗51：17)。他医好伤心的人，裹好他们的伤处(诗147：3)。那至高至上、永远长存、名为圣者的如此说：我住在至高至圣的所在，也与心灵痛悔、谦卑的人同居；要使谦卑人的灵苏醒，也使痛苦人的心苏醒。我必不永远相争，也不常久发怒，恐怕我所造的人与灵性都必发昏(赛57：15，16)。 失丧的，我必寻找，被逐的，我必领回，受伤的，我必缠裹，有病的，我必医治(结34：16)。所以，你们要把下垂的手、发酸的腿挺起来，也要为自己的脚，把道路修直了，使瘸子不至歪脚，反得痊愈(来12：12，13)。 看哪，你们的 神必来拯救你们(赛35：4)。
A bruised reed shall he not break. MATT. 12:20.
The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise. — He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds. — Thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy; I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to
revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones. For I will not contend for ever, neither will I be always wroth: for the spirit should fail before me, and the souls which I have made. I will seek that which was lost, and bring again that which was driven away, and will bind up that which was broken, and will strengthen that which was sick. — Wherefore lift up the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees; and make straight paths for your feet, lest that which is lame be turned out of the way; but let it rather be healed. — Behold, your God … will come and save you.

你们要尝尝主恩的滋味，便知道他是美善，投靠他的人有福了(诗34：8)!
管筵席的尝了那水变的酒，并不知道是哪里来的，说：人都是先摆上好酒，等客喝足了，才摆上次的；你倒把好酒留到如今(约2：9，10)! 因为耳朵试验话语，好像上膛尝食物(伯34：3)。
我信(林后4：13)。因为知道我所信的是谁(提后1：12)。
我欢欢喜喜坐在他的荫下，尝他果子的滋味，觉得甘甜(歌2：3)。 神的恩慈(罗2：4)。 神既不爱惜自己的儿子为我们众人舍了，岂不也把万物和他一同白白地赐给我们吗(罗8：32)? 爱慕那纯净的灵奶，像才生的婴孩爱慕奶一样，叫你们因此渐长，以致得救。你们若尝过主恩的滋味，就必如此(彼前2：2，3)。凡投靠你的，愿他们喜乐，时常欢呼(诗5：11)。
O taste and see that the Lord is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him. PSA. 34:8.
When the ruler of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and knew not whence it was: he saith, … Every man at the beginning doth set forth good wine; and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: but thou hast kept the good wine until now. The ear trieth words, as the mouth tasteth meat.
I believed, and therefore have I spoken. — I know whom I have believed.
I sat down under his shadow with great delight, and his fruit was sweet to my taste. The goodness of God. — He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things? As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby: if so be ye have tasted that the Lord is gracious. Let all those that put their trust in thee rejoice: let them ever shout for joy.
