Lamentations 3:27

Holy Bible: Easy-to-Read Version

It is good for a man to wear his yoke from the time he is young.

See the chapter Copy

Remember your Creator while you are young, before the bad times come—before the years come when you say, “I have wasted my life.”

Suffering was good for me; I learned your laws.

Lord, great blessings belong to those you discipline, to those you teach from your law.

Teach us how short our lives are so that we can become wise.

It is good to wait quietly for the Lord to save them.

He should sit alone and be quiet when the Lord puts his yoke on him.
