Discovery BoxIsaiah 30:15 
Context30:15 For this is what the master, the Lord, the Holy One of Israel says:
“If you repented and patiently waited for me, you would be delivered; 1
if you calmly trusted in me you would find strength, 2
but you are unwilling.
Isaiah 51:5
Context51:5 I am ready to vindicate, 3
I am ready to deliver, 4
I will establish justice among the nations. 5
The coastlands 6 wait patiently for me;
they wait in anticipation for the revelation of my power. 7
Isaiah 49:23
Context49:23 Kings will be your children’s 8 guardians;
their princesses will nurse your children. 9
With their faces to the ground they will bow down to you
and they will lick the dirt on 10 your feet.
Then you will recognize that I am the Lord;
those who wait patiently for me are not put to shame.
