  1. Psalm 27:14 Wait in faith

34 for you had compassion on [a]me (A)in my chains, and (B)joyfully accepted the plundering of your [b]goods, knowing that (C)you have a better and an enduring possession for yourselves [c]in heaven. 35 Therefore do not cast away your confidence, (D)which has great reward. 36 (E)For you have need of endurance, so that after you have done the will of God, (F)you may receive the promise:

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

39 But we are not of those (J)who draw back to [g]perdition, but of those who (K)believe to the saving of the soul.
