Lamentations 3:17-26
English Standard Version
17 my soul is bereft of peace;
I have forgotten what happiness[a] is;
18 (A)so I say, “My endurance has perished;
so has my hope from the Lord.”
19 (B)Remember my affliction and my wanderings,
(C)the wormwood and (D)the gall!
20 My soul continually remembers it
(E)and is bowed down within me.
21 But this I call to mind,
and (F)therefore I have hope:
22 (G)The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases;[b]
(H)his mercies never come to an end;
23 they are new (I)every morning;
(J)great is your faithfulness.
24 (K)“The Lord is my portion,” says my soul,
(L)“therefore I will hope in him.”
25 The Lord is good to those who (M)wait for him,
to the soul who seeks him.
26 (N)It is good that one should wait quietly
for the salvation of the Lord.

17 I have been deprived of peace;
I have forgotten what prosperity is.
18 So I say, “My splendor is gone
and all that I had hoped from the Lord.”(A)
19 I remember my affliction and my wandering,
the bitterness(B) and the gall.(C)
20 I well remember them,
and my soul is downcast(D) within me.(E)
21 Yet this I call to mind
and therefore I have hope:

Jesus Foretells Destruction of the Temple
24 (A)Jesus left the temple and was going away, when his disciples came to point out to him the buildings of the temple. 2 But he answered them, “You see all these, do you not? Truly, I say to you, (B)there will not be left here one stone upon another that will not be thrown down.”
Signs of the End of the Age
3 As he sat on (C)the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him (D)privately, saying, “Tell us, (E)when will these things be, and what will be the sign of your (F)coming and of (G)the end of the age?” 4 And Jesus answered them, (H)“See that no one leads you astray. 5 For (I)many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am (J)the Christ,’ and they will lead many astray. 6 And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you (K)are not alarmed, for this (L)must take place, but the end is not yet. 7 For (M)nation will rise against nation, and (N)kingdom against kingdom, and there will be (O)famines and earthquakes in various places. 8 All these are but the beginning of (P)the birth pains.

The Destruction of the Temple and Signs of the End Times(A)
24 Jesus left the temple and was walking away when his disciples came up to him to call his attention to its buildings. 2 “Do you see all these things?” he asked. “Truly I tell you, not one stone here will be left on another;(B) every one will be thrown down.”
3 As Jesus was sitting on the Mount of Olives,(C) the disciples came to him privately. “Tell us,” they said, “when will this happen, and what will be the sign of your coming(D) and of the end of the age?”(E)
4 Jesus answered: “Watch out that no one deceives you.(F) 5 For many will come in my name, claiming, ‘I am the Messiah,’ and will deceive many.(G) 6 You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. 7 Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom.(H) There will be famines(I) and earthquakes in various places. 8 All these are the beginning of birth pains.
