16 He has also broken my teeth
awith gravel,
And
1 covered me with ashes.
17 You have moved my soul far from peace;
I have forgotten
1 prosperity.
18 aAnd I said, “My strength and my hope
Have perished from the
Lord.”
19 Remember my affliction and roaming,
aThe wormwood and the
1 gall.
20 My soul still remembers
And
1 sinks within me.
21 This I recall to my mind,
Therefore I have
ahope.
22 aThrough the
Lord’s mercies we are not consumed,
Because His compassions
bfail not.
23 They are new
aevery morning;
Great
is Your faithfulness.
