Psalms 68:20

A church father on this verse
“Our God is the God of saving, and the outcomes of death belong to the Lord: because he himself rose from the dead, and made us rise together with him. Otherwise, the devil is the entrance of death: but the Lord leads out.”

18And turn not away thy face from thy servant; For I am afflicted: hear me speedily.

19Draw nigh to my soul and redeem it: Deliver me because of mine enemies.

— Psalms 68:20 —

21My soul has waited for reproach and misery; And I waited for one to grieve with me, but there was none; And for one to comfort me, but I found none.

22They gave me also gall for my food, And made me drink vinegar for my thirst.
