Lamentations 3:21-36

21— This I recall to heartH3820, thereforeH3651 have I hopeH3176.

22It is of Jehovah's loving-kindness we are not consumed, because his compassionsH7356 failH3615 not;

23they are newH2319 every morningH1242: greatH7227 is thy faithfulnessH530.

24Jehovah is my portionH2506, saith my soulH5315; thereforeH3651 will I hopeH3176 in him.

25Jehovah is goodH2896 unto them that waitH6960 for him, to the soulH5315 [that] seeketh him.

26It is goodH2896 that one should both wait, and that in silence, for the salvationH8668 of Jehovah.

27It is goodH2896 for a manH1397 that he bearH5375 the yokeH5923 in his youthH5271:

28He sitteth solitary and keepeth silence, because he hath laid it upon him;

29he putteth his mouthH6310 in the dustH6083, if so be there may be hopeH8615;

30he giveth his cheekH3895 to him that smiteth him; he is filled full with reproachH2781.

31For the LordH136 will not cast off for everH5769;

32but if he have caused griefH3013, he will have compassionH7355 according to the multitudeH7230 of his loving-kindnesses:

33for he doth not willingly afflictH6031 or grieve the children of menH376.

34To crushH1792 under footH7272 all the prisonersH615 of the earthH776,

35to turnH5186 asideH5186 the rightH4941 of a manH1397 before the faceH6440 of the Most High,

36to wrong a manH120 in his causeH7379, — will not the LordH136 seeH7200 it?
