God Will Be Gracious

18 Therefore the Lord will wait, that He may be agracious to you;
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. 
19 For the people ashall dwell in Zion at Jerusalem;
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. 
20 And though the Lord gives 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. 
21 Your ears shall hear a word behind you, saying,
“This is the way, walk in it,”
Whenever you aturn to the right hand
Or whenever you turn to the left. 
22 aYou will also defile the covering of your images of silver,
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!” 
23 aThen He will give the rain for your seed
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.
