For the vision is yet for the (A)appointed time;
It [a]hurries toward the goal and it will not [b]fail.
Though it delays, (B)wait for it;
For it will certainly come, it (C)will not delay long.

“Behold, as for the (D)impudent one,
His soul is not right within him;
But the (E)righteous one will live by his [c]faith.
Furthermore, (F)wine betrays an (G)arrogant man,
So that he does not (H)achieve his objective.
He (I)enlarges his appetite like Sheol,
And he is like death, never satisfied.
He also gathers to himself all the nations
And collects to himself all the peoples.
