Sympathy

“Now when Job’s three friends—Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite—heard about all this adversity that had come upon him, each of them came from his home, and they met together to go and sympathize with Job and comfort him.”

“A despairing man should have the kindness of his friend, even if he forsakes the fear of the Almighty.”

“When men are brought low and you say, ‘Lift them up!’ then He will save the lowly.”

“It is better to enter a house of mourning than a house of feasting, since death is the end of every man, and the living should take this to heart.”

“Therefore if you have any encouragement in Christ, if any comfort from His love, if any fellowship with the Spirit, if any affection and compassion,”

“then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being united in spirit and purpose.”

“Pure and undefiled religion before our God and Father is this: to care for orphans and widows in their distress, and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.”

“Finally, all of you, be like-minded and sympathetic, love as brothers, be tenderhearted and humble.”
