24 The Lord is all I have, and so I put my hope in him.
25 The Lord is good to everyone who trusts in him,
26 So it is best for us to wait in patience — to wait for him to save us —
27 And it is best to learn this patience in our youth.
28 When we suffer, we should sit alone in silent patience;
29 We should bow in submission, for there may still be hope.
30 Though beaten and insulted, we should accept it all.
