“And the Lord answered me, and said, write the vision, and make it plain upon tablets, that he may run who reads it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry.”

Habakkuk, Ch. 2, vs. 2–3
