Habakkuk 2:2-4
English Standard Version
The Righteous Shall Live by His Faith
2 And the Lord answered me:
(A)“Write the vision;
make it plain on tablets,
so he may run who reads it.
3 For still (B)the vision awaits its appointed time;
it hastens to the end—it will not lie.
If it seems slow, (C)wait for it;
(D)it will surely come; it will not delay.
4 “Behold, his soul is puffed up; it is not upright within him,
but (E)the righteous shall live by his faith.[a]

The Lord responds
2 Then the Lord answered me and said,
Write a vision, and make it plain upon a tablet
so that a runner can read it.[a]
3 There is still a vision for the appointed time;
it testifies to the end;
it does not deceive.[b]
If it delays, wait for it;
for it is surely coming; it will not be late.
4 Some people’s desires are truly audacious;[c]
they don’t do the right thing.
But the righteous person will live honestly.
