35 Therefore do not cast away your confidence, (A)which has great reward. 36 (B)For you have need of endurance, so that after you have done the will of God, (C)you may receive the promise:

37 “For (D)yet a little while,
And (E)He[a] who is coming will come and will not [b]tarry.
38 Now (F)the[c] just shall live by faith;
But if anyone draws back,
My soul has no pleasure in him.”

39 But we are not of those (G)who draw back to [d]perdition, but of those who (H)believe to the saving of the soul.

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.
