with the ships of Tarshish in the lead,

for the honor of the LORD your God,

the Holy One of Israel,

who has glorified you.

who acts on behalf of the one who waits for him.

Have you completely rejected Judah?

Do you detest Zion?

Why do you strike us

with no hope of healing for us?

for a time of healing,

but there was only terror.

Can any of the worthless idols of the nations bring rain?

Or can the skies alone give showers?

Are you not the LORD our God?

We therefore put our hope in you,

for you have done all these things.

Yet I call this to mind,

and therefore I have hope:

The LORD is good to those who wait for him,

to the person who seeks him.

“Happy is the one who waits for and reaches 1,335 days.

But I will look to the LORD;

I will wait for the God of my salvation.

My God will hear me.

The LORD is good,

a stronghold in a day of distress;

he cares for those who take refuge in him.

For the vision is yet for the appointed time;

it testifies about the end and will not lie.

Though it delays, wait for it,

since it will certainly come and not be late.

Therefore, wait for me —

this is the LORD’s declaration —

until the day I rise up for plunder.[fn]

For my decision is to gather nations,

to assemble kingdoms,

in order to pour out my indignation on them,

all my burning anger;

for the whole earth will be consumed

by the fire of my jealousy.

“The crown will reside in the LORD’s temple as a memorial to Heldai, Tobijah, Jedaiah, and Hen[fn] son of Zephaniah.
