22  ^lThe steadfast love of the Lord never ceases;¹

^lhis mercies never come to an end;

23  they are new ^mevery morning;

ⁿgreat is your faithfulness.

24  ^o“The Lord is my portion,” says my soul,

^k“therefore I will hope in him.”

25  The Lord is good to those who ^pwait for him,

to the soul who seeks him.

26  ^qIt is good that one should wait quietly

for the salvation of the Lord.

31  ^wFor the Lord will not

cast off forever,

32  for, though he ^xcause grief, ^yhe will have compassion

^zaccording to the abundance of his steadfast love;

33  ^afor he does not afflict from his heart

or ^bgrieve the children of men.
