Psalms 34:20

18 The LORD is near to the brokenhearted; He saves the contrite in spirit.

19 Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the LORD delivers him from them all.

He protects all his bones; not one of them will be broken.

21 Evil will slay the wicked, and the haters of the righteous will be condemned.

22 The LORD redeems His servants, and none who take refuge in Him will be condemned.

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
