Lamentations 3:25-33

25The LORDH3068 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 the LORDH3068.

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

28Let him sitH3427 aloneH910 and keep silence, becauseH3588 he hath laidH5190 it uponH5921 him.

29LetH5414 him putH5414 his mouthH6310 in the dustH6083; ifH194 soH5414 be there may he hopeH8615.

30LetH5414 him giveH5414 his cheekH3895 to him that smiteth him; letH5414 him be filledH7646 fullH7646 with reproachH2781.

31For the LordH136 will notH3808 cast off for everH5769.

32For thoughH3588 he cause griefH3013, yet will he have compassionH7355 according to the multitudeH7230 of his mercies.

33For he doth notH3808 afflictH6031 willingly, norH3808 grieveH3013 the childrenH1121 of menH376.
