25 The LORD is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him. |
26 It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the LORD. |
27 It is good for a man that he bear the yoke in his youth. |
28 He sitteth alone and keepeth silence, because he hath borne 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 though he cause grief, yet will he have compassion according to the multitude of his mercies. |
33 For he doth not afflict willingly nor grieve the children of men. |
34 To crush under his feet all the prisoners of the earth, |
35 To turn aside the right of a man before the face of the most High, |
36 To subvert a man in his cause, the Lord approveth not. |
