who say, Let him hasten, let him speed his work, that we may see it; and let the counsel of the Holy One of Israel draw nigh and come, that we may know it!

Therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Behold, I lay for foundation in Zion a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner-stone, a sure foundation: he that trusteth shall not make haste.

He shall not faint nor be in haste, till he have set justice in the earth: and the isles shall wait for his law.

Thy sons shall make haste; thy destroyers and they that laid thee waste shall go forth from thee.

For ye shall not go out with haste, nor go by flight; for Jehovah will go before you, and the God of Israel will be your rear-guard.

Their feet run to evil, and they make haste to shed innocent blood; their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity; wasting and destruction are in their paths;

The little one shall become a thousand, and the smallest a mighty nation: I, Jehovah, will hasten it in its time.
