37 (A)For, as the scripture says,

“Just a little while longer,
    and he who is coming will come;
    he will not delay.

    I will not be pleased with them.”

    And I take no pleasure
    in the one who shrinks back.”[c](D)

39 But we do not belong to those who shrink back and are destroyed, but to those who have faith and are saved.
