Lamentations 3:19-32 (AKJ : American King James)

Remembering my affliction and my misery, the wormwood and the gall.
My soul has them still in remembrance, and is humbled in me.
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 your faithfulness.
The LORD is my portion, said my soul; therefore will I hope in him.
The LORD is good to them that wait for him, to the soul that seeks 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 of his youth.
He sits alone and keeps silence, because he has borne it on him.
He puts his mouth in the dust; if so be there may be hope.
He gives his cheek to him that smites 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.
