gone.\u201d<\/p>\r\n<p><sup>19\u00a0<\/sup>I remember how I suffered and wandered.<br \/>\r\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0I remember how bitter my life was.<br \/>\r\n<sup>20\u00a0<\/sup>I remember it very well.<br \/>\r\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0My spirit is very sad deep down inside me.<br \/>\r\n<sup>21\u00a0<\/sup>But here is something else I remember.<br \/>\r\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0And it gives me hope.<\/p>\r\n<p><sup>22\u00a0<\/sup>The Lord loves us very much.<br \/>\r\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0So we haven\u2019t been completely destroyed.<br \/>\r\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0His loving

\u201cThe Lord is everything I will ever need.<br \/>\r\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0So I will put my hope in him.\u201d<\/p>\r\n<p><sup>25\u00a0<\/sup>The Lord is good to those who put their hope in him.<br \/>\r\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0He is good to those who look to him.<br \/>\r\n<sup>26\u00a0<\/sup>It is good when people wait quietly<br \/>\r\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0for the Lord to save them.<br \/>\r\n<sup>27\u00a0<\/sup>It is good for a man to carry a heavy load of suffering<br \/>\r\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0while he is young.<\/p>\r\n<p><sup>28\u00a0<\/sup>Let him sit alone and not say anything.<br \/>\r\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0The Lord has placed that load on him.<br \/>\r\n<sup>29\u00a0<\/sup>Let him bury his face in the dust.<br \/>\r\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0There might still be hope for him.<br \/>\r\n<sup>30\u00a0<\/sup>Let him turn his cheek toward those who would slap him.<br \/>\r\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Let him be filled with shame.<\/p>\r\n<p><sup>31\u00a0<\/sup>The Lord doesn\u2019t turn his back<br \/>\r\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0on people forever.<br \/>\r\n<sup>32\u00a0<\/sup>He might bring suffering.<br \/>\r\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0But he will also show loving concern.<br \/>\r\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0How great his faithful love is!<br \/>\r\n<sup>33\u00a0<\/sup>He doesn\u2019t want to bring
