18So I say, “My strength has perished,
along with my hope from the LORD.”
19Remember my affliction and wandering,
the wormwood and the gall.
20Surely my soul remembers
and is humbled within me.
21Yet I call this to mind,
and therefore I have hope:
22Because of the loving devotion of the LORD we are not consumed,
for His mercies never fail.
23They are new every morning;
great is Your faithfulness!
— Lamentations 3:18-23
