Habakkuk 2:1-4

1I will 1stand at my guard post And station myself on the watchtower; And I will 2keep watch to see 3what He will say to me, And how I may reply 4when I am reprimanded.2Then the Lord answered me and said, “5Write down the vision And inscribe it clearly on tablets, So that one who 6reads it may run.3For the vision is yet for the 7appointed time; It 8hurries toward the goal and it will not 9fail. Though it delays, 10wait for it; For it will certainly come, it 11will not delay long.

4“Behold, as for the 12impudent one, His soul is not right within him; But the 13righteous one will live by his 14faith.
