23. Great is his faithfulness;his mercies begin afresh each morning.
24. I say to myself, “The lord is my inheritance;therefore, I will hope in him!”
25. The lord is good to those who depend on him,to those who search for him.
26. So it is good to wait quietlyfor salvation from the lord.
27. And it is good for people to submit at an early ageto the yoke of his discipline:
28. Let them sit alone in silencebeneath the lord’s demands.
29. Let them lie face down in the dust,for there may be hope at last.
30. Let them turn the other cheek to those who strike themand accept the insults of their enemies.
