Lamentations
Chapters 3:26-32
Revised Version 1885
26It is good that a man should hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the Lord.
27It is good for a man that he bear the yoke in his youth.
28Let him sit alone and keep silence, because he hath laid it upon him.
29Let him put his mouth in the dust; if so be there may he hope.
30Let him give his cheek to him that smiteth him; let him be filled full with reproach.
31For the Lord will not cast off for ever.
32For though he cause grief, yet will he have compassion according to the multitude of his mercies.
