20. I well remember them,and my soul is downcast within me.
21. Yet this I call to mindand therefore I have hope:
22. Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed,for his compassions never fail.
23. They are new every morning;great is your faithfulness.
24. I say to myself, ‘The Lord is my portion;therefore I will wait for him.’
25. The Lord is good to those whose hope is in him,to the one who seeks him;
26. it is good to wait quietlyfor the salvation of the Lord.
27. It is good for a man to bear the yokewhile he is young.
28. Let him sit alone in silence,for the Lord has laid it on him.
