Verse
Lamentations - ch 3 v 21 - 40
- This I recall to my mind, therefore have I hope.
- It is of the LORD'S mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not.
- They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.
- The LORD is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him.
- The LORD is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him.
- It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the LORD.
- It is good for a man that he bear the yoke in his youth.
- He sitteth alone and keepeth silence, because he hath borne it upon him.
- He putteth his mouth in the dust; if so be there may be hope.
- He giveth his cheek to him that smiteth him: he is filled full with reproach.
- For the Lord will not cast off for ever:
- But though he cause grief, yet will he have compassion according to the multitude of his mercies.
- For he doth not afflict willingly nor grieve the children of men.
- To crush under his feet all the prisoners of the earth,
- To turn aside the right of a man before the face of the most High,
- To subvert a man in his cause, the Lord approveth not.
- Who is he that saith, and it cometh to pass, when the Lord commandeth it not?
- Out of the mouth of the most High proceedeth not evil and good?
- Wherefore doth a living man complain, a man for the punishment of his sins?
- Let us search and try our ways, and turn again to the LORD.
