Psalms 34:15
The eyes of the LORD are on the righteous, and His ears are inclined to their cry.
BSB
ASV
The eyes of Jehovah are toward the righteous, And his ears are open unto their cry.
KJV
The eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous, and his ears are open unto their cry.
The eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous. He observes them with approval and tender consideration; they are so dear to him that he cannot take his eyes off them; he watches each one of them as carefully and intently as if there were only that one creature in the universe. His ears are open unto their cry. His eyes and ears are thus both turned by the Lord towards his saints; his whole mind is occupied about them: if slighted by all others they are not neglected by him.
Rare words are the text's own signal of a deliberate thread: the fewer the occurrences, the more the places it appears belong together.

Where several different paths arrive at the same place, that place is listed first: the text keeps returning to it. Every stop shows its own words, and every stop is a page.
