Bible verse for August 28

¹⁸ Therefore Yahweh waits to be gracious to you; therefore he rises up to show you compassion. For Yahweh is a God of justice; blessed are all who wait for him. ¹⁹ For a people will live in Zion, in Jerusalem; you will weep no more. He will surely be gracious to you at the sound of your cry; as soon as he hears it, he will answer you. ²⁰ Though the Lord gives you the bread of adversity and the water of affliction, your teacher will no longer hide himself; your eyes will see your teacher. ²¹ Whenever you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a word behind you: “This is the way; walk in it.” ²² Then you will defile your silver-covered idols and your gold-plated images; you will throw them away like a menstrual cloth and say to them, “Get out!” ²³ He will send rain for the seed you sow in the ground, and the bread that the ground produces will be rich and plentiful. On that day your livestock will graze in wide pastures. ²⁴ The oxen and donkeys that work the ground will eat seasoned fodder, winnowed with shovel and fork.
