Lamentations 3:24

Compare all

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.

24 “The Lord is my ^aportion,” says my soul,
“Therefore I ^bhope in Him!”

25 The Lord is good to those who ^await for Him,
To the soul who seeks Him.

26 It is good that one should ^ahope ^band wait quietly
For the salvation of the Lord.

Lamentations 3:24

The Lord is my portion - " My portion is Yahweh," see Numbers 18:20; Psalms 16:5 ff.

Therefore will I hope in him - A more full expression of the confidence present in the prophet' s mind in Lamentations 3:21, but based now upon God' s faithfulness in showing mercy.
