Lamentations 3:33
Compare all
31 aFor the Lord will not cast off forever. 
32 Though He causes grief,
Yet He will show compassion
According to the multitude of His mercies.
33 For aHe does not afflict willingly,
Nor grieve the children of men. 
34 To crush under one’s feet
All the prisoners of the earth,
35 To turn aside the justice due a man
Before the face of the Most High,

Lamentations 3:33

For he doth not afflict willingly - It is no pleasure to God to afflict men. He takes no delight in our pain and misery: yet, like a tender and intelligent parent, he uses the rod; not to gratify himself, but to profit and save us.
