15. He hath filled me with bitterness, he hath sated me with wormwood.
16. He hath also broken my teeth with gravel stones, he hath covered me with ashes.
17. And thou hast removed my soul far off from peace; I forgat prosperity.
18. And I said, My strength is perished, and mine expectation from the LORD.
19. Remember mine affliction and my misery, the wormwood and the gall.
20. My soul hath them still in remembrance, and is bowed down within me.
21. This I recall to my mind, therefore have I hope.
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.
