Jehovah is far from the wicked. He hears the prayer of the righteous.

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

The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to Jehovah! The prayer of the upright is his delight.

Why are you so distant, Jehovah? Why do you hide in times of trouble?

They cried out for help, but there was no one to save them. They cried out to Jehovah, but he did not answer them.

Jehovah's eyes watch over righteous people. His ears hear their cry for help.

If I had thought about doing anything sinful, Jehovah would not have listened to me.

Those who are far from you will perish. You have destroyed all those who are unfaithful to you.

Even though Jehovah is high above, he sees humble people close up, and he recognizes arrogant people from a distance.

My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, declares Jehovah.

These will go away into ever-burning fire (everlasting cutting off) (death) (total destruction) (doom) (punishment) (everlasting penalty), but the righteous to everlasting life.'

We know that God does not listen to sinners. If any man respects God and does his will, God listens to him.

Likewise the Spirit also helps our weaknesses. We do not know what we should pray for, as we should. The Spirit [of God] makes intercession with groaning that cannot be spoken.

You were separate from Christ at that time, alienated from the commonwealth of Israel. You were strangers from the covenants of the promise. You had no hope and were without God in the world.

Confess therefore your sins one to another, and pray one for another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man helps much.

The eyes of Jehovah (God) are upon the righteous. His ears hear their prayers. But the face (person) of Jehovah is against those who do evil.
