NIV

17 He has also removed my soul from peace: I forgot prosperity.
17 I have been deprived of peace; I have forgotten what prosperity is.
18 Therefore my success has perished, and my hope from the Lord.
18 So I say, “My splendor is gone and all that I had hoped from the LORD.”
19 ZAIN. I remembered by reason of my poverty, and because of persecution my bitterness and gall shall be remembered;
19 I remember my affliction and my wandering, the bitterness and the gall.
20 and my soul shall meditate with me.
20 I well remember them, and my soul is downcast within me.
21 This will I lay up in my heart, therefore I will endure.
21 Yet this I call to mind and therefore I have hope:
22 HETH. the mercies of the Lord, that he has not failed me, because his compassions are not exhausted. Pity , O Lord, early month: for we are not brought to an end, because his compassions are not exhausted.
22 Because of the LORD’s great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail.
23 new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.
23 They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.
24 The Lord is my portion, says my soul; therefore will I wait for him.
24 I say to myself, “The LORD is my portion; therefore I will wait for him.”
25 TETH. The Lord is good to them that wait for him: the soul which shall seek him
25 The LORD is good to those whose hope is in him, to the one who seeks him;
26 good, and shall wait for, and quietly expect salvation of the Lord.
26 it is good to wait quietly for the salvation of the LORD.
27 TETH. good for a man when he bears a yoke in his youth.
27 It is good for a man to bear the yoke while he is young.
