Lamentations 3:26-30 Modern English Version (MEV)

26. It is good that a man should wait quietlyfor the salvation of the Lord.

27. It is good for a man to bear the yokein his youth.

28. Let him sit alone in silencewhen it is laid on him;

29. let him put his mouth in the dust—there may yet be hope.

30. Let him give his cheek to the one who strikes,and let him be filled with insults.
