So Balaam got up in the morning and [fn]saddled his donkey and went with the leaders of Moab.

But the man was not willing to stay the night; so he got up and left and came to a place opposite Jebus (that is Jerusalem). With him were two saddled donkeys [and his servant] and his concubine.

When David was a little past the summit [of the Mount of Olives], behold, Ziba, the servant of [fn]Mephibosheth, met him with a team of saddled donkeys, and on them were two hundred loaves of bread, a hundred clusters of raisins, a hundred summer fruits, and a [fn]jug of wine.

“For He inflicts pain, but He binds up and gives relief;

He wounds, but His hands also heal.

“Man dams up the streams from flowing [so that they do not trickle into the mine],

And what is hidden he brings out to the light.

“Shall one who hates justice [and is an enemy of right] govern?

And will you condemn Him who is just and mighty?

“[Crush and] hide them in the dust together;

Shut them up in the hidden place [the house of death].

He heals the brokenhearted

And binds up their wounds [healing their pain and comforting their sorrow].

From the sole of the foot even to the head

There is nothing healthy in the nation’s body,

Only bruises, welts, and raw wounds,

Not pressed out or bandaged,

Nor softened with oil [as a remedy].

He will protest on that day, saying,

“I will not be a [fn]governor;

For in my house there is neither bread nor clothing;

You should not make me a judge and ruler of the people.”

The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me,

Because the LORD has anointed and commissioned me

To bring good news to the humble and afflicted;

He has sent me to bind up [the wounds of] the brokenhearted,

To proclaim release [from confinement and condemnation] to the [physical and spiritual] captives

And freedom to prisoners,

“Come and let us return [in repentance] to the LORD,

For He has torn us, but He will heal us;

He has wounded us, but He will bandage us.

“The waters surrounded me, to the point of death.

The great deep engulfed me,

Seaweed was wrapped around my head.
