Habakkuk 2:1

The Righteous Will Live By Faith

¹ I will stand at my guard post
and station myself on the lookout tower.
I will watch to see what He will say to me
and what I should reply about my complaint. ² The Lord answered me:

Write down this vision;
clearly inscribe it on tablets
so one may easily read it.

In Me

Keep Watch
