Isaiah 8:17

Wait For Yahweh

¹⁶ Tie up the scroll as legal evidence, seal the official record of God's instructions and give it to my followers. ¹⁷ I will wait patiently for the Lord, who has rejected the family of Jacob; I will wait for him. ¹⁸ Look, I and the sons whom the Lord has given me are reminders and object lessons in Israel, sent from the Lord who commands armies, who lives on Mount Zion.
