Lamentations 3:22-25
New International Reader's Version
22 The Lord loves us very much.
So we haven’t been completely destroyed.
His loving concern never fails.
23 His great love is new every morning.
Lord, how faithful you are!
24 I say to myself, “The Lord is everything I will ever need.
So I will put my hope in him.”
25 The Lord is good to those who put their hope in him.
He is good to those who look to him.

22 The Lord's kindness never fails!
If he had not been merciful,
we would have been destroyed.[a]

“The Lord is all I need;
I can depend on him!”

who trusts and obeys him.
