He has filled me with bitterness.
He has stuffed me with wormwood.
He has also broken my teeth with gravel.
He has covered me with ashes.
You have removed my soul far away from peace.
I forgot prosperity.
I said, “My strength has perished, along with my expectation from the LORD.”
Remember my affliction and my misery, the wormwood and the bitterness.
My soul still remembers them, and is bowed down within me.
This I recall to my mind; therefore I have hope.
It is because of the LORD’s loving kindnesses that we are not consumed, because his mercies don’t fail.
They are new every morning.
Great is your faithfulness.
