Habakkuk 2:2-4
Lexham English Bible

2 Then Yahweh answered me and said,
“Write the vision and make it plain on the tablet
    so that it might be read quickly.[a]
3 For there is yet a vision for the appointed time;
    it will give witness to the end, and it will not lie.
If it tarries, wait for it,
    for it will surely come and not delay.
4 Look! His spirit within him is puffed up;
    it is not upright.
    But the righteous shall live by his faithfulness.
