WOUND.

He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds.—Psalm cxlvii. 1, 3.
The spirit of a man will sustain his infirmity: but a wounded spirit who can bear?—Proverbs, xviii. 14.
He was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.—Isaiah, liii. 5.
