But thou, O LORD my God, my holy one: thou art from the beginning, therefore shall we not die. O LORD, thou hast ordained them for punishment, and set them to reprove the mighty.

But the LORD answered me, and said, "Write the vision plainly upon thy tables, that whoso cometh by, may read it:

for the vision is yet far off for a time, but at the last it shall come to pass, and not fail. And though he tarry, yet wait thou for him, for in very deed he will come, and not be slack.

Behold, whoso will not believe, his soul shall not prosper: but the just shall live by his faith.

But shall not all these take up a proverb against him, and mock him with a byword, and say, "Woe unto him that heapeth up other men's goods: How long will he lade himself with thick clay?"

But the LORD in his holy temple is he, whom all the world should fear.

For the fig trees shall not be green, and the vines shall bear no fruit. The labour of the olive shall be but lost, and the land shall bring no corn: the sheep shall be taken out of the fold, and there shall be no cattle in the stalls.

But as for me, I will be glad in the LORD, and will rejoice in God my Saviour.
