The righteous cry, and the LORD heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles.
The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit.
Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivereth him out of them all.
He keepeth all his bones: not one of them is broken.
Evil shall slay the wicked: and they that hate the righteous shall be desolate.
The LORD redeemeth the soul of his servants: and none of them that trust in him shall be desolate.

New Defender's Study Bible Notes

34:20 keepeth all his bones. This psalm of “the afflictions of the righteous” (Psalm 34:19) is, in the deepest sense, a Messianic psalm. Contrary to the usual practice in crucifixion, Jesus died before His executioners could break His bones (John 19:33-36).
