'Wait' in the Bible

I will wait for the Lord,who is hiding His face from the house of Jacob.I will wait for Him.

Yes, Yahweh, we wait for Youin the path of Your judgments.Our desire is for Your name and renown.

For the ruthless one will vanish,the scorner will disappear,and all those who lie in wait with evil intentwill be killed—

Therefore the Lord is waiting to show you mercy,and is rising up to show you compassion,for the Lord is a just God.All who wait patiently for Him are happy.

Lord, be gracious to us! We wait for You.Be our strength every morningand our salvation in time of trouble.

He will not grow weak or be discourageduntil He has established justice on earth.The islands will wait for His instruction.”

Yes, the islands will wait for Mewith the ships of Tarshish in the lead,to bring your children from far away,their silver and gold with them,for the honor of the Lord your God,the Holy One of Israel,who has glorified you.
