Lamentations 3:26 - 3:31

It is good that he waits silently

For the salvation of Yahweh.

It is good for a man that he should bear

The yoke in his youth.

Let him sit alone and be silent

Since He has laid it on him.

Let him put his mouth in the dust;

Perhaps there is hope.

Let him give his cheek to the one who strikes him;

Let him be saturated with reproach.

For the Lord will not reject forever,
