Berean Standard Bible
“It is good for a man to bear the yoke while he is still young.”
Lamentations 3 sits at the center of a book of grief over Jerusalem's destruction, and in the middle of the pain the poet turns to hope. After declaring that the Lord's mercies are new every morning, he moves to practical wisdom about suffering.
