37 “For (A)yet a little while,
And (B)He[a] who is coming will come and will not [b]tarry.
38 Now (C)the[c] just shall live by faith;
But if anyone draws back,
My soul has no pleasure in him.”
39 But we are not of those (D)who draw back to [d]perdition, but of those who (E)believe to the saving of the soul.
