Wait for the Lord;
Be strong and let your heart take courage;
Yes, wait for the Lord.

I wait for the Lord, my soul does wait,
And in His word do I hope.

The Lord favors those who fear Him,
Those who wait for His lovingkindness.

Indeed, none of those who wait for You will be ashamed;
Those who deal treacherously without cause will be ashamed.

Lead me in Your truth and teach me,
For You are the God of my salvation;
For You I wait all the day.

Let integrity and uprightness preserve me,
For I wait for You.

Rest in the Lord and wait patiently for Him;
Do not fret because of him who prospers in his way,
Because of the man who carries out wicked schemes.

For evildoers will be cut off,
But those who wait for the Lord, they will inherit the land.

Wait for the Lord and keep His way,
And He will exalt you to inherit the land;
When the wicked are cut off, you will see it.

“And now, Lord, for what do I wait?
My hope is in You.

I will give You thanks forever, because You have done it,
And I will wait on Your name, for it is good, in the presence of Your godly ones.

My soul, wait in silence for God only,
For my hope is from Him.

I am weary with my crying; my throat is parched;
My eyes fail while I wait for my God.

May those who wait for You not be ashamed through me, O Lord God of hosts;
May those who seek You not be dishonored through me, O God of Israel,

They all wait for You
To give them their food in due season.

They quickly forgot His works;
They did not wait for His counsel,

And do not take the word of truth utterly out of my mouth,
For I wait for Your ordinances.

May those who fear You see me and be glad,
Because I wait for Your word.

Kaph.
My soul languishes for Your salvation;
I wait for Your word.

The wicked wait for me to destroy me;
I shall diligently consider Your testimonies.

You are my hiding place and my shield;
I wait for Your word.

I rise before dawn and cry for help;
I wait for Your words.
