1I will standH5975 atH5921 my guard postH4931 and station myselfH3320 onH5921 the rampartsH4692. I will watchH6822 to seeH7200 whatH4100 He will sayH1696 to me, and howH4100 I should answerH7725 whenH5921 correctedH8433.

2Then the LORDH3068H559 answered meH6030:

“Write downH3789 this visionH2377and clearlyH874 inscribe it onH5921 tabletsH3871,so thatH4616 a heraldH7121 may runH7323 with it.3ForH3588 the visionH2377 awaitsH5750 an appointed timeH4150;it testifiesH6315 of the endH7093 and does notH3808 lieH3576.ThoughH518 it lingersH4102, waitH2442 for it,sinceH3588 it will surely comeH935 and will notH3808 delayH309.14Look atH2009 the proud oneH6075; his soulH5315 is notH3808 uprightH34742—but the righteousH6662 will liveH2421 by faithH5303—
