Habakkuk 3:17-19
English Standard Version
Habakkuk Rejoices in the Lord
17 Though the fig tree should not blossom,
nor fruit be on the vines,
the produce of the olive fail
and the fields yield no food,
the flock be cut off from the fold
and there be no herd in the stalls,
18 (A)yet I will rejoice in the Lord;
(B)I will take joy in the God of my salvation.
19 God, the Lord, is my strength;
(C)he makes my feet like the deer's;
he makes me (D)tread on my (E)high places.

Psalm 77:2-4
English Standard Version
2 (A)In the day of my trouble I seek the Lord;
in (B)the night my (C)hand is stretched out without wearying;
my soul (D)refuses to be comforted.
3 When I remember God, I (E)moan;
when I meditate, my spirit faints. Selah
4 You hold my eyelids open;
I am so (F)troubled that I cannot speak.

have gone over me.
Psalm 38:1-8
English Standard Version
Do Not Forsake Me, O Lord
A Psalm of David, (A)for the memorial offering.
38 O Lord, (B)rebuke me not in your anger,
nor discipline me in your wrath!
2 For your (C)arrows have sunk into me,
and your hand (D)has come down on me.
3 There is (E)no soundness in my flesh
because of your indignation;
there is no health in my (F)bones
because of my sin.
4 For my (G)iniquities have gone over my head;
like a heavy burden, they are too heavy for me.
5 My wounds stink and fester
because of my foolishness,
6 I am (H)utterly bowed down and (I)prostrate;
all the day I (J)go about mourning.
7 For my sides are filled with burning,
and there is (K)no soundness in my flesh.
8 I am feeble and crushed;
I (L)groan because of the tumult of my heart.
