Lamentations

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. ³³For he doth not afflict willingly, nor grieve the children of men. ³⁴To crush under foot all the prisoners of the earth, ³⁵To turn aside the right of a man before the face of the Most High, ³⁶To subvert a man in his cause, the Lord approveth not. ³⁷Who is he that saith, and it cometh to pass, when the Lord commandeth it not?
