Lamentations 3:30-36

30Let him give his cheek to the one who strikes him, And be full of reproach.

31For the Lord will not cast off forever.

32Though He causes grief, Yet He will show compassion According to the multitude of His mercies.

33For He does not afflict willingly, Nor grieve the children of men.

34To crush under one’s feet All the prisoners of the earth,

35To turn aside the justice due a man Before the face of the Most High,

36Or subvert a man in his cause— The Lord does not approve.
