Jonah 1:11

Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding.

Don’t fret because of evildoers, neither be envious against those who work unrighteousness.

Wait for Yahweh. Be strong, and let your heart take courage. Yes, wait for Yahweh.

I waited patiently for Yahweh. He turned to me, and heard my cry.

My soul rests in God alone. My salvation is from him.

My soul, wait in silence for God alone, for my expectation is from him.

Don’t say, “I will pay back evil.” Wait for Yahweh, and he will save you.

Yahweh is good to those who wait for him, to the soul who seeks him.

It is good that a man should hope and quietly wait for the salvation of Yahweh.

For I was envious of the arrogant, when I saw the prosperity of the wicked.

Don’t be envious of evil men, neither desire to be with them;

For thus said the Lord Yahweh, the Holy One of Israel, “You will be saved in returning and rest. Your strength will be in quietness and in confidence.” You refused,

Let’s not be weary in doing good, for we will reap in due season, if we don’t give up.

Rest in Yahweh, and wait patiently for him. Don’t fret because of him who prospers in his way, because of the man who makes wicked plots happen.

Wait for Yahweh, and keep his way, and he will exalt you to inherit the land. When the wicked are cut off, you shall see it.

Why are you in despair, my soul? Why are you disturbed within me? Hope in God! For I shall still praise him for the saving help of his presence.

Don’t be afraid when a man is made rich, when the glory of his house is increased;

I don’t rebuke you for your sacrifices. Your burnt offerings are continually before me.

The foolishness of man subverts his way; his heart rages against Yahweh.

If you see the oppression of the poor, and the violent taking away of justice and righteousness in a district, don’t marvel at the matter, for one official is eyed by a higher one, and there are officials over them.

I will wait for Yahweh, who hides his face from the house of Jacob, and I will look for him.

“The king will do according to his will. He will exalt himself, and magnify himself above every god, and will speak marvelous things against the God of gods. He will prosper until the indignation is accomplished; for that which is determined will be done.

You also be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand.

Then Joshua spoke to Yahweh in the day when Yahweh delivered up the Amorites before the children of Israel. He said in the sight of Israel, “Sun, stand still on Gibeon! You, moon, stop in the valley of Aijalon!”

While he was still talking with them, behold, the messenger came down to him. Then he said, “Behold, this evil is from Yahweh. Why should I wait for Yahweh any longer?”

For my soul was grieved. I was embittered in my heart.

Sigh, but not aloud. Make no mourning for the dead. Bind your headdress on you, and put your sandals on your feet. Don’t cover your lips, and don’t eat mourner’s bread.”

Therefore turn to your God. Keep kindness and justice, and wait continually for your God.

“Therefore wait for me”, says Yahweh, “until the day that I rise up to the prey, for my determination is to gather the nations, that I may assemble the kingdoms, to pour on them my indignation, even all my fierce anger, for all the earth will be devoured with the fire of my jealousy.

“By your endurance you will win your lives.

rejoicing in hope; enduring in troubles; continuing steadfastly in prayer;

For you need endurance so that, having done the will of God, you may receive the promise.
