“The Righteous Shall Live by Faith”

Habakkuk 2:1-4 (ESV)

I will take my stand at my watchpost 

and station myself on the tower, 

and look out to see what he will say to me, 

and what I will answer concerning my complaint. 

The Righteous Shall Live by His Faith

2 And the Lord answered me: 

“Write the vision; 

make it plain on tablets, 

so he may run who reads it. 

3  For still the vision awaits its appointed time; 

it hastens to the end—it will not lie. 

If it seems slow, wait for it; 

it will surely come; it will not delay. 

4  “Behold, his soul is puffed up; it is not upright within him, 

but the righteous shall live by his faith.
