Habakkuk 2:2-4
Tree of Life Version
Vision for an Appointed Time
2 Then Adonai answered me and said:
“Write down the vision,[a]
make it plain on the tablets,
so that the reader may run with it.
3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time.
It hastens to the end
and will not fail.
If it should be slow in coming, wait for it,
For it will surely come—it will not delay.”[b]
Trust, Judgment and Glory
4 Behold, the puffed up one—
his soul is not right within him,
But the righteous will live by his trust.[c]

King James Version
2 And the Lord answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it.
3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry.
4 Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: but the just shall live by his faith.
