'Far' in the Bible
To the Overseer, on 'The Hind of the Morning.' -- A Psalm of David. My God, my God, why hast Thou forsaken me? Far from my salvation, The words of my roaring?
Be not far from me, For adversity is near, for there is no helper.
And Thou, O Jehovah, be not far off, O my strength, to help me haste.
Thou hast seen, O Jehovah, Be not silent, O Lord -- be not far from me,
Do not forsake me, O Jehovah, My God, be not far from me,
To the Overseer. -- 'On the Dumb Dove far off.' -- A secret treasure of David, in the Philistines' taking hold of him in Gath. Favour me, O God, for man swallowed me up, All the day fighting he oppresseth me,
By fearful things in righteousness Thou answerest us, O God of our salvation, The confidence of all far off ends of earth and sea.
O God, be not far from me, O my God, for my help make haste.
For, lo, those far from Thee do perish, Thou hast cut off every one, Who is going a whoring from Thee.
Thou hast put mine acquaintance far from me, Thou hast made me an abomination to them, Shut up -- I go not forth.
Thou hast put far from me lover and friend, Mine acquaintance is the place of darkness!
As the distance of east from west He hath put far from us our transgressions.
And he loveth reviling, and it meeteth him, And he hath not delighted in blessing, And it is far from him.
Near have been my wicked pursuers, From Thy law they have been far off.
Far from the wicked is salvation, For Thy statutes they have not sought.
