Lamentations 3:19-25

English Standard Version

^19 (A)Remember my affliction and my wanderings,
    ^(B)the wormwood and ^(C)the gall!
²⁰ My soul continually remembers it
    ^(D)and is bowed down within me.
²¹ But this I call to mind,
    and ^(E)therefore I have hope:

^22 (F)The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases;^{[a]
    (G)}his mercies never come to an end;
²³ they are new ^(H)every morning;
    ^(I)great is your faithfulness.
^24 (J)“The Lord is my portion,” says my soul,
    ^(K)“therefore I will hope in him.”

²⁵ The Lord is good to those who ^(L)wait for him,
    to the soul who seeks him.
