28 They should sit alone and remain silentbecause the Lord has laid these burdens on them.
29 They should put their mouths in the dust.Maybe a reason to hope exists.

32 Even if he makes us suffer,he will have compassionin keeping with the richness of his mercy.
33 He does not willingly bring suffering or grief to anyone,
