Lamentations 3:28

²⁶ It is good to wait quietly for the salvation of the LORD.

²⁷ It is good for a man to bear the yoke while he is still young.

Let him sit alone in silence, for God has disciplined him.

²⁹ Let him bury his face in the dust— perhaps there is still hope.

³⁰ Let him offer his cheek to the one who would strike him; let him be filled with reproach.

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
