Jehovah-Rapha, The Lord Who Heals



...for I, the Lord, am your healer.
Exodus 2:26

He heals the brokenhearted, and binds up their wounds.
Psalm 147:3

Surely our griefs He Himself bore,
And our sorrows He carried;
Yet we ourselves esteemed Him stricken,
Smitten of God, and afflicted.
But He was pierced through for our transgressions,
He was crushed for our iniquities;
The chastening for our well-being fell upon Him,
And by His scourging we are healed.
Isaiah 53:4-5

But for you who fear My name
the sun of righteousness will rise with healing in its wings.
Malachi 4:2

Heal me, O Lord, and I will be healed;
save me and I will be saved, for Thou art my praise.
Jeremiah 17:14
