⁴ Thy words have upholden him that was falling, and thou hast strengthened the feeble knees.

¹² Wherefore lift up the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees;

¹⁴ Now we exhort you, brethren, warn them that are unruly, comfort the feebleminded, support the weak, be patient toward all men.

¹⁸ There is that speaketh like the piercings of a sword: but the tongue of the wise is health.

¹⁴ The Lord upholdeth all that fall, and raiseth up all those that be bowed down.

⁶ Nevertheless God, that comforteth those that are cast down, comforted us by the coming of Titus;

⁷ So that contrariwise ye ought rather to forgive him, and comfort him, lest perhaps such a one should be swallowed up with overmuch sorrow.

⁶ Then the king's countenance was changed, and his thoughts troubled him, so that the joints of his loins were loosed, and his knees smote one against another.

³ Strengthen ye the weak hands, and confirm the feeble knees.

⁴ Say to them that are of a fearful heart, Be strong, fear not: behold, your God will come with vengeance, even God with a recompence; he will come and save you.

²³ The heart of the wise teacheth his mouth, and addeth learning to his lips.

²⁴ Pleasant words are as an honeycomb, sweet to the soul, and health to the bones.
