God Will Be Gracious
And therefore He will be exalted, that He may have mercy on you.
For the Lord is a God of justice;
bBlessed are all those who cwait for Him.
You shall bweep no more.
He will be very gracious to you at the sound of your cry;
When He hears it, He will canswer you.
aThe bread of adversity and the water of1 affliction,
Yet byour teachers will not be moved into a corner anymore,
But your eyes shall see your teachers.
“This is the way, walk in it,”
Whenever you aturn to the right hand
Or whenever you turn to the left.
And the ornament of your molded images of gold.
You will throw them away as an unclean thing;
bYou will say to them, “Get away!”
With which you sow the ground,
And bread of the increase of the earth;
It will be1 fat and plentiful.
In that day your cattle will feed
In large pastures.

What Does Isaiah 30:20 Mean?
Isaiah 30:20
We will have the opportunity to build a totally new world of peace, happiness, and prosperity, and we will accomplish this by teaching and enforcing obedience to God's laws throughout the whole earth. This will be our main responsibility during the thousand-year reign of Christ.

Basic Doctrines: The Reward of the Saved
Isaiah 30:19-21
For the people shall dwell in Zion at Jerusalem - He will regather people out of their captivity.
You shall weep no more - Jeremiah tells us they come back weeping (Jeremiah 31:9), but they will soon have cause to cease their crying.
He will be very gracious unto you at the voice of your cry - In Nehemiah, when the people cried out to Him, He rescued them. He sent deliverers, saviors, to them.
When He shall hear it, He will answer you - How did He answer Israel's prayers historically? He answered by sending a Moses or a Joshua. He will follow the same pattern during the Millennium.
Yet shall not your teachers be removed into a corner any more - The "Moses" or the "Joshua" will not die and be replaced by somebody inferior.
But your eyes shall see your teachers - This is an expression of longevity, as their teachers will be eternal.
