Holy Scripture

Psalms 30:2

A church father on this verse
“For as much as someone directs their intention towards the Lord, they elevate the Lord even more, and they themselves are elevated. Hence, he says: I will exalt you, O Lord, for you have lifted me up. For the holy person exalts the Lord, while the sinner humbles Him.”
Ambrose of Milan, 4th c. — On Isaac and the Soul, Chapter VII, 57

3Incline thine ear to me; Make haste to rescue me: Be thou to me for a protecting God, And for a house of refuge to save me.
