Habakkuk 2:1-4

1I will 1standH5975 on my guardH4931 postH4931 And stationH3320 myself on the rampartH4692; And I will 2keepH6822 watchH6822 to seeH7200 3whatH4100 He will speakH1696 to me, And howH4100 I may replyH7725 4whenH5921 I am reprovedH8433.2Then the LordH3068 answeredH6030 me and saidH559, “5RecordH3789 the visionH2377 And inscribeH874 it on tabletsH3871, That 6the one who 7readsH7121 it may runH7323.3For the visionH2377 is yetH5750 for the 8appointedH4150 timeH4150; It 9hastensH6315 toward the goalH7093 and it will not 10failH3576. ThoughH518 it tarriesH4102, 11waitH2442 for it; For it will certainlyH935 comeH935, it 12will not delayH309.

4“BeholdH2009, as for the 13proudH6075 one, His soulH5315 is not rightH3474 within him; But the 14righteousH6662 will liveH2421 by his 15faithH530.
