Lamentations 3:22-33
New International Version
22 Because of the Lord’s great love(A) we are not consumed,(B)
for his compassions never fail.(C)
23 They are new every morning;
great is your faithfulness.(D)
24 I say to myself, “The Lord is my portion;(E)
therefore I will wait for him.”
25 The Lord is good to those whose hope is in him,
to the one who seeks him;(F)
26 it is good to wait quietly(G)
for the salvation of the Lord.(H)
27 It is good for a man to bear the yoke
while he is young.
Lamentations 3:22-33
King James Version
22 It is of the Lord's mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not.
23 They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.
24 The Lord is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him.
25 The Lord is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him.
26 It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the Lord.
27 It is good for a man that he bear the yoke in his youth.
28 He sitteth alone and keepeth silence, because he hath borne it upon him.
29 He putteth his mouth in the dust; if so be there may be hope.
30 He giveth his cheek to him that smiteth him: he is filled full with reproach.
31 For the Lord will not cast off for ever:
32 But though he cause grief, yet will he have compassion according to the multitude of his mercies.
33 For he doth not afflict willingly nor grieve the children of men.
