For there is still a vision for the appointed time;
    it speaks of the end and does not lie.
If it seems to tarry, wait for it;
    it will surely come; it will not delay.(A)
Look at the proud!
    Their spirit is not right in them,
    but the righteous live by their faithfulness.(B)

  2. Habakkuk 2:4 Or faith

24 For in[a] hope we were saved. Now hope that is seen is not hope, for who hopes for what one already sees? 25 But if we hope for what we do not see, we wait for it with patience.

26 Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness, for we do not know how to pray as we ought, but that very Spirit intercedes[b] with groanings too deep for words.(A) 27 And God,[c] who searches hearts, knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit[d] intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.(B)

28 We know that all things work together[e] for good for those who love God, who are called according to his purpose.(C) 29 For those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, in order that he might be the firstborn within a large family.[f](D) 30 And those whom he predestined he also called, and those whom he called he also justified, and those whom he justified he also glorified.(E)

24 For in this hope we were saved.(A) But hope that is seen is no hope at all.(B) Who hopes for what they already have? 25 But if we hope for what we do not yet have, we wait for it patiently.(C)

26 In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit(D) himself intercedes for us(E) through wordless groans. 27 And he who searches our hearts(F) knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes(G) for God’s people in accordance with the will of God.

28 And we know that in all things God works for the good(H) of those who love him, who[a] have been called(I) according to his purpose.(J) 29 For those God foreknew(K) he also predestined(L) to be conformed to the image of his Son,(M) that he might be the firstborn(N) among many brothers and sisters. 30 And those he predestined,(O) he also called;(P) those he called, he also justified;(Q) those he justified, he also glorified.(R)
