Lamentations 3:25-33

25Jehovah is goodH2896 unto them that waitH6960 for him, to the soulH5315 that seeketh him.26It is goodH2896 that a man should hope and quietly wait for the salvationH8668 of Jehovah.27It is goodH2896 for a manH1397 that he bearH5375 the yokeH5923 in his youthH5271.28Let him sitH3427 aloneH910 and keep silence, because he hath laid it upon him.29Let him putH5414 his mouthH6310 in the dustH6083, if so be there may be hopeH8615.30Let him giveH5414 his cheekH3895 to him that smiteth him; let him be filled full with reproachH2781.31For the LordH136 will not cast off for everH5769.32For though he cause griefH3013, yet will he have compassionH7355 according to the multitudeH7230 of his lovingkindnesses.33For he doth not afflictH6031 willingly, nor grieve the children of menH376.
