1. I will stand like a guard to watch.I will stand on the tower.I will wait to see what the Lord will say to me.I will wait to learn how to answer his complaint.
2. The Lord answered me:“Write down what I show you.Write it clearly on stone tabletsso whoever reads it can run to tell others.
3. It is not yet time for the message to come true.But that time is coming soon.The message will come true.It may seem like a long time before it happens.But be patient and wait for it.These things will happen.They will not be delayed.
4. See, the nation that is evil and trusts in itself will fail.But those who do right because they trust in God will live.
