The Lord's Kindness

6 For a son is dishonouring a father, A daughter hath stood against her mother, A daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law, The enemies of each are the men of his house. 7 And I -- in Jehovah I do watch, I do wait for the God of my salvation, Hear me doth my God. 8 Thou dost not rejoice over me, O mine enemy, When I have fallen, I have risen, When I sit in darkness Jehovah is a light to me.
