Habakkuk 2:3-4
Expanded Bible

3 ·It is not yet time for the message to come true [L For the vision awaits an appointed time],
    ·but that time is coming soon [it hastens to the end; or it speaks about the end];
    the message will ·come true [not lie].
·It may seem like a long time,
    but [Though it tarries/lingers] be patient and wait for it,
because it will surely come;
    it will not be delayed.
4 [L Look; T Behold] ·The evil nation [L He] is ·very proud of itself [puffed up];
    ·it [L his soul] is not ·living as it should [upright].
But ·those who are right with God [the righteous] will live ·by faith [or because of their faithfulness; Rom. 1:17; Gal. 3:11; Heb. 10:38].
