Olam 2

And thou hast removed my soul far off from peace: I forgat prosperity.

And I said, My strength and my hope is perished from the LORD:

Remembering mine affliction and my misery, the wormwood and the gall.

My soul hath <i>them</i> still in remembrance, and is humbled in me.

This I recall to my mind, therefore have I hope.

The LORD <i>is</i> good unto them that wait for him, to the soul <i>that</i> seeketh him.

<i>It is</i> good that <i>a man</i> should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the LORD.

<i>It is</i> good for a man that he bear the yoke in his youth.

He sitteth alone and keepeth silence, because he hath borne <i>it</i> upon him.

He giveth <i>his</i> cheek to him that smiteth him: he is filled full with reproach.
