Psalms 35:13,14

Literally this is true of Christ. For our sickness was unto death. And to recover us did not Jesus clothe himself with the sackcloth of mortality? Did he not fast forty days and forty nights? Did he not both fast and pray, and mourn over us as though we had been friends or brethren, when we were all enemies to God by wicked works? Oh, thou compassionate Lord! Yes! thou wert a brother indeed born for adversity! Thou wert and art a friend at all times, and thou didst, and still thou dost comfort us, as one whom his mother comforted. Proverbs 17:7; Isaiah 66:13; John 15:13.
