In context

27 [It is] good for a man that he should bear the yoke in his youth.

28 He sitteth alone, and keepeth silence, because he hath borne [it] upon him.

29 He putteth his mouth in the dust; if there may be hope.

30 He giveth [his] cheek to him that smiteth him: he is filled full with reproach.

31 For the Lord will not cast off for ever:

32 But though he causeth grief, yet will he have compassion according to the multitude of his mercies.

33 For he doth not afflict willingly nor grieve the children of men.
