Psalms 88:18

18 You have caused ^amy beloved and my friend to shun me;
my companions have become darkness. ^{▼▼Or darkness has become my only companion}

Psalms 142:4

4 ^cLook to the ^dright and see:
^ethere is none who takes notice of me;
^fno refuge remains to me;
no one cares for my soul.

Isaiah 3:4-8

4 ^gAnd I will make boys their princes,
and infants ^{▼▼Or caprice} shall rule over them.
5 ⁱAnd the people will oppress one another,
every one his fellow
and every one his neighbor;
the youth will be insolent to the elder,
and the despised to the honorable.
6 For ^ja man will take hold of his brother
in the house of his father, saying:
“You have a cloak;
you shall be our leader,
and this heap of ruins
shall be under your rule”;
7 in that day he will speak out, saying:
“I will not be a ^khealer; ^{▼▼Hebrew binder of wounds}
in my house there is neither bread nor cloak;
you shall not make me
leader of the people.”
8 For Jerusalem has stumbled,
and Judah has fallen,
because their ^mspeech and their deeds are against the Lord,
ⁿdefying his glorious presence. ^{▼▼Hebrew the eyes of his glory}

Isaiah 49:21

21 Then you will say in your heart:
‘Who has borne me these?
^pI was bereaved and barren,
exiled and put away,
but who has brought up these?
Behold, I was left alone;
from where have these come?’”

Matthew 9:36

36 ^qWhen he saw the crowds, ^rhe had compassion for them, because they were harassed and helpless, ^slike sheep without a shepherd.

Matthew 15:14

14 Let them alone; ^tthey are blind guides. ^{▼▼Some manuscripts add of the blind} And ^vif the blind lead the blind, both will fall into a pit.”
