Lamentations 3:28 in Context — Lamentations 3
26 Il est bon d’attendre en silence Le secours de l’Éternel.
27 Il est bon pour l’homme De porter le joug dans sa jeunesse.
28 Il se tiendra solitaire et silencieux, Parce que l’Éternel le lui impose;
29 Il mettra sa bouche dans la poussière, Sans perdre toute espérance;
30 Il présentera la joue à celui qui le frappe, Il se rassasiera d’opprobres.
