New Testament

Habakkuk 2:1-5 God's Word Translation (GW)

1. I will stand at my guard post.I will station myself on the wall.I will watch to see what he will say to meand what answer I will get to my complaint.

2. Then the Lord answered me,“Write the vision.Make it clear on tabletsso that anyone can read it quickly.

3. The vision will still happen at the appointed time.It hurries toward its goal.It won’t be a lie.If it’s delayed, wait for it.It will certainly happen.It won’t be late.

4. “Look at the proud person. He is not right in himself.But the righteous person will live because of his faithfulness.

5. Also because wine is treacheroushe is arrogant and never rests.He has a large appetite like the grave.He is like death—never satisfied.He gathers all the nations to himself.He collects all the people to himself.
