New King James Version
Habakkuk 2:3-5
New King James Version
3 For (A)the vision is yet for an appointed time;
But at the end it will speak, and it will (B)not lie.
Though it tarries, (C)wait for it;
Because it will (D)surely come,
It will not tarry.
4 “Behold the proud,
His soul is not upright in him;
But the (E)just shall live by his faith.
Woe to the Wicked
5 “Indeed, because he transgresses by wine,
He is a proud man,
And he does not stay at home.
Because he (F)enlarges his desire as [a]hell,
And he is like death, and cannot be satisfied,
He gathers to himself all nations
And heaps up for himself all peoples.

Habakkuk 2:3-5
New International Version
3 For the revelation awaits an appointed time;(A)
it speaks of the end(B)
and will not prove false.
Though it linger, wait(C) for it;
it[a] will certainly come
and will not delay.(D)
4 “See, the enemy is puffed up;
his desires are not upright—
but the righteous person(E) will live by his faithfulness[b](F)—
5 indeed, wine(G) betrays him;
he is arrogant(H) and never at rest.
Because he is as greedy as the grave
and like death is never satisfied,(I)
he gathers to himself all the nations
and takes captive(J) all the peoples.
