Therefore turn to your God. Keep kindness and justice, And wait for your God continually.
And wait on thy God continually - If they did so, they should not wait in vain. : “This word, “continually,” hath no small weight in it, shewing with what circumstances or properties their waiting or hope on God ought to be attended; that it ought to be on Him alone, on Him always, without doubting, fainting, failing, intermission or ceasing, in all occasions and conditions which may befall them, without exception of time, even in their adversity.” “Turn to ‘thy’ God,” he saith, “wait on ‘thy’ God,” as the great ground of repentance and of trust. “God had avouched them for His peculiar people” Deuteronomy 26:17-18, and they had “avouched Him for” their only “God.” He then was still their God, ready to receive them, if they would return to Him.
