Ekhah 3:30-36 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

30. He offereth his lekhi (cheek) to him that striketh him; he is filled full with reproach [Isa 50:6].

31. For Adonoi will not cast off l'olam (forever);

32. But though He cause grief, yet will He have compassion according to the rov chasadav (the multitude of His mercies).

33. For He doth not afflict willingly nor bring grief to Bnei Ish.

34. To crush under His feet kol asirei eretz (all the prisoners of the earth),

35. To turn aside the mishpat gever (the right of a man) before the face of Elyon,

36. To subvert a man in his cause, Adonoi approveth not.
