Lamentations 3:18

16 He has also broken my teeth ^awith gravel,
And¹ covered me with ashes.

17 You have moved my soul far from peace;
I have forgotten¹ prosperity.

18 ^aAnd I said, “My strength and my hope
Have perished from the Lord.”

19 Remember my affliction and roaming,
^aThe wormwood and the¹ gall.

20 My soul still remembers
And¹ 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.

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