Lamentations 3:26-36

26 It is good that one should wait quietly for the salvation of the LORD.
27 It is good for a man that he bear the yoke in his youth.
28 Let him sit alone in silence when he has laid it on him;
29 let him put his mouth in the dust--there may yet be hope;
30 let him give his cheek to the smiter, and be filled with insults.
31 For the Lord will not cast off for ever,
32 but, though he cause grief, he will have compassion according to the abundance of his steadfast love;
33 for he does not willingly afflict or grieve the sons of men.
34 To crush under foot all the prisoners of the earth,
35 to turn aside the right of a man in the presence of the Most High,
36 to subvert a man in his cause, the Lord does not approve.
