Lamentations 3:21-26
New American Standard Bible

21 I recall this to my mind,
Therefore I [a](A)wait.
22 [b]The Lord’s (B)acts of mercy indeed do not end,
(C)For His compassions do not fail.
23 They are new (D)every morning;
Great is (E)Your faithfulness.
24 “The Lord is my (F)portion,” says my soul,
“Therefore I [c](G)wait for Him.”
25 The Lord is good to those who [d](H)await Him,
To the [e]person who (I)seeks Him.
26 It is good that he (J)waits silently
For the salvation of the Lord.
