And may it not see ^H7200 the [fn]breaking ^H6079 dawn ^H7837;

The travelers ^H1979 of Sheba ^H7614 hoped ^H6960 for them.

“As a slave ^H5650 pants ^H7602 for the shade ^H6738,

And as a hired ^H7916 worker ^H7916 who eagerly ^H6960 waits ^H6960 for his wages ^H6467,

I [fn]make ^H7502 my bed ^H3326 in the darkness ^H2822;

When I waited ^H3176 for light ^H216, darkness ^H652 came ^H935.

Indeed ^H1571, none ^H3605 H3808 of those who wait ^H6960 for You will be ^H954 ashamed ^H954;

[fn]Those who deal ^H898 treacherously ^H898 without ^H7387 cause ^H7387 will be ^H954 ashamed ^H954.

Wait ^H6960 for the LORD ^H3068;

And He reached ^H5186 down ^H5186 to me and heard ^H8085 my cry ^H7775.

I will praise ^H3034 You forever ^H5769, because ^H3588 You have done ^H6213 it,

And I will wait ^H6960 on Your name ^H8034, for it is good ^H2896, in the presence ^H5048 of Your godly ^H2623 ones ^H2623.

They [fn]attack ^H1481, they lurk ^H6845,

They watch ^H8104 my [fn]steps ^H6119,

As they have waited ^H6960 to take my [fn]life ^H5315.

May those who wait ^H6960 for You not be ^H954 ashamed ^H954 because of me, Lord ^H136 [fn]GOD ^H3068 of armies ^H6635;

May those who seek ^H1245 You not be dishonored ^H3637 because of me, God ^H430 of Israel ^H3478,

The wicked ^H7563 wait ^H6960 for me to destroy ^H6 me;

I will diligently ^H995 consider ^H995 Your testimonies ^H5713.

I wait ^H6960 for the LORD ^H3068, my soul ^H5315 waits ^H6960,

And I [fn]wait ^H3176 for His word ^H1697.

He dug ^H5823 it all ^H5823 around ^H5823, cleared ^H5619 it of ^H5619 stones ^H5619,

And planted ^H5193 it with [fn]the choicest ^H8321 vine ^H8321.

And He built ^H1129 a tower ^H4026 in the middle ^H8432 of it,

And also ^H1571 carved ^H2672 out ^H2672 a [fn]wine ^H3342 vat ^H3342 in it;

Then He expected ^H6960 it to produce ^H6213 good grapes ^H6025,

But it produced ^H6213 only [fn]worthless ^H891 ones ^H891.

And it will be said ^H559 on that day ^H3117,

“Behold ^H2009, this ^H2088 is our God ^H430 for whom we have waited ^H6960 [fn]that He might save ^H3467 us.

This ^H2088 is the LORD ^H3068 for whom we have waited ^H6960;

Let’s rejoice ^H1523 and be ^H8055 glad ^H8055 in His salvation ^H3444.”

Indeed ^H637, while following the way ^H734 of Your judgments ^H4941, LORD ^H3068,

We have waited ^H6960 for You eagerly ^H6960;

Your name ^H8034, and remembering ^H2143 You, is the desire ^H8378 of our souls ^H5315.

LORD ^H3068, be ^H2603 gracious ^H2603 to us; we have waited ^H6960 for You.

Be [fn]their [fn]strength ^H2220 every morning ^H1242,

Our salvation ^H3444 also ^H637 in the time ^H6256 of distress ^H6869.

Yet those who [fn]wait ^H6960 for the LORD ^H3068

Will gain ^H2498 new ^H2498 strength ^H3581;

They will [fn]mount ^H5927 up ^H5927 with wings ^H83 like eagles ^H5404,

They will run ^H7323 and not get ^H3021 tired ^H3021,

They will walk ^H1980 and not become ^H3286 weary ^H3286.

“Kings ^H4428 will be your guardians ^H539,

And their princesses ^H8282 your nurses ^H3243.

They will bow ^H2331 down ^H2331 to you with their faces ^H639 to the ground ^H776

And lick ^H3897 the dust ^H6083 from your feet ^H7272;

And you will know ^H3045 that I am the LORD ^H3068;

Those who ^H834 hopefully ^H6960 wait ^H6960 for Me will not be put ^H954 to ^H954 shame ^H954.

“My righteousness ^H6664 is near ^H7138, My salvation ^H3468 has gone ^H3318 forth ^H3318,

And My arms ^H2220 will judge ^H8199 the peoples ^H5971;

The coastlands ^H339 will wait ^H6960 for Me,

And they will wait ^H3176 expectantly ^H3176 for My arm ^H2220.

Therefore ^H5921 H3651 justice ^H4941 is ^H7368 far ^H7368 from us,

And righteousness ^H6666 does not reach ^H5381 us;

We hope ^H6960 for light ^H216, but there ^H2009 is darkness ^H2822,

For brightness ^H5054, but we walk ^H1980 in gloom ^H653.

“Certainly ^H3588 the coastlands ^H339 will wait ^H6960 for Me;

And the ships ^H591 of Tarshish ^H8659 will come first ^H7223,

To bring ^H935 your sons ^H1121 from afar ^H7350,

Their silver ^H3701 and their gold ^H2091 with them,

For the name ^H8034 of the LORD ^H3068 your God ^H430,

And for the Holy ^H6918 One ^H6918 of Israel ^H3478 because ^H3588 He has glorified ^H6286 you.

When You did ^H6213 awesome ^H3372 things ^H3372 which we did not expect ^H6960,

You came ^H3381 down ^H3381, the mountains ^H2022 quaked ^H2151 at Your presence ^H6440.

We waited ^H6960 for peace ^H7965, but no ^H369 good ^H2896 came;

For a time ^H6256 of healing ^H4832, but behold ^H2009, terror ^H1205!

Give ^H5414 glory ^H3519 to the LORD ^H3068 your God ^H430

Before ^H2962 He brings ^H2821 darkness ^H2821

And before ^H2962 your feet ^H7272 stumble ^H5062

On the mountains ^H2022 in the dark ^H5399,

And while you are hoping ^H6960 for light ^H216

He makes ^H7760 it into gloom ^H6757,

And turns ^H7896 it into thick ^H6205 darkness ^H6205.

Have You completely ^H3988 rejected ^H3988 Judah ^H3063?

Or ^H518 have [fn]You loathed ^H1602 Zion ^H6726?

Why ^H4069 have You stricken ^H5221 us so that we are beyond ^H369 healing ^H4832?

We waited ^H6960 for peace ^H7965, but nothing ^H369 good ^H2896 came;

And for a time ^H6256 of healing ^H4832, but behold ^H2009, terror ^H1205!

All ^H3605 your enemies ^H340

Have opened ^H6475 their mouths ^H6310 wide ^H6475 against ^H5921 you;

They [fn]hiss ^H8319 and gnash ^H2786 their teeth ^H8127.

They say ^H559, “We have engulfed ^H1104 her!

This ^H2088 certainly ^H389 is the day ^H3117 which ^H7945 we awaited ^H6960;

We have reached ^H4672 it, we have seen ^H7200 it!”

The LORD ^H3068 is good ^H2896 to those who [fn]await ^H6960 Him,

To the [fn]person ^H5315 who seeks ^H1875 Him.

So as for you, return ^H7725 to your God ^H430,

Maintain ^H8104 [fn]kindness ^H2617 and justice ^H4941,

And wait ^H6960 for your God ^H430 continually ^H8548.

Then the remnant ^H7611 of Jacob ^H3290

Will be among ^H7130 many ^H7227 peoples ^H5971

Like dew ^H2919 from the LORD ^H3068,

Like showers ^H7241 on vegetation ^H6212

That do not wait ^H6960 for man ^H376,

Or delay ^H3176 for [fn]mankind ^H1121 H120.
