- "[It is] goodª that [a man] should both hopeª°²° and quietly waitª for the salvationª of the LORD.ª ... For¹ he doth not¹ afflictª° willinglyª¹ nor grieveª° the childrenª of men.ª" {Lam 3:26-33} + "Thus¹ saithª° the LORD,ª the Godª of Israel;ª Like these¹ goodª figs,ª so¹ will I acknowledgeª°¹ them that are carried away captiveª of Judah,ª whom¹ I have sentª° out of¹ this¹ placeª into the landª of the Chaldeansª for [their] good.ª ...
