Habakkuk 2:3-5
Revised Standard Version
Habakkuk 2:3-5
Revised Standard Version
3 For still the vision awaits its time;
it hastens to the end—it will not lie.
If it seem slow, wait for it;
it will surely come, it will not delay.
4 Behold, he whose soul is not upright in him shall fail,[a]
but the righteous shall live by his faith.[b]
5 Moreover, wine is treacherous;
the arrogant man shall not abide.[c]
His greed is as wide as Sheol;
like death he has never enough.
He gathers for himself all nations,
and collects as his own all peoples.”
