Lamentations 3:18-22
18
So I say, “My splendor is gone
and all that I had hoped from the Lord.”
19
I remember my affliction and my wandering,
the bitterness and the gall.
20
I well remember them,
and my soul is downcast within me.
21
Yet this I call to mind
and therefore I have hope:
22
Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed,
for his compassions never fail.
