Habakkuk 2:2-3
New American Standard Bible 1995

2 Then the Lord answered me and said,
“(A)Record the vision
And inscribe it on tablets,
That [a]the one who [b]reads it may run.
3 “For the vision is yet for the (B)appointed time;
It [c]hastens toward the goal and it will not [d]fail.
Though it tarries, (C)wait for it;
For it will certainly come, it (D)will not delay.

Eternal One (to Habakkuk): 2 Write down this vision.

        it testifies regarding the end, and it will not lie.
    Even if there is a delay, wait for it.
        It is coming and will come without delay.[a]
