Lamentations 3:31-36

New International Version

³¹ For no one is cast off
    by the Lord forever.^(A)
32 Though he brings grief, he will show compassion,
    so great is his unfailing love.^(B)
33 For he does not willingly bring affliction
    or grief to anyone.^(C)

³⁴ To crush underfoot
    all prisoners in the land,
³⁵ to deny people their rights
    before the Most High,^(D)
36 to deprive them of justice—
    would not the Lord see such things?^(E)
