Hebrews 10:35-39
New American Standard Bible
35 Therefore, do not throw away your (A)confidence, which has a great (B)reward. 36 For you have need of (C)endurance, so that when you have (D)done the will of God, you may (E)receive [a]what was promised.
37 (F)For yet in a very little while,
(G)He who is coming will come, and will not delay.
38 (H)But My righteous one will live by faith;
And if he shrinks back, My soul has no pleasure in him.
39 But [b]we are not among those who shrink back to destruction, but of those who have faith for the safekeeping of the soul.

Hebrews 10:35-39
Lexham English Bible
35 Therefore do not throw away your confidence, which has great reward. 36 For you have need of endurance, in order that after you[a] have done the will of God, you may receive what was promised. 37 For yet
“a very, very little while,
and the one who is coming will come and will not delay.
38 But my righteous one will live by faith,
and if he shrinks back, my soul is not well pleased with him.”[b]
39 But we are not among those who shrink back to destruction, but among those who have faith to the preservation of our souls.
