Lamentations 3:27-33 Darby Translation 1890 (DARBY)

27. It is good for a man that he bear the yoke in his youth:

28. He sitteth solitary and keepeth silence, because he hath laid 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 if he have caused grief, he will have compassion according to the multitude of his loving-kindnesses:

33. for he doth not willingly afflict or grieve the children of men.
