35 Therefore do not cast away your confidence, (A)which has great reward. 36 (B)For you have need of endurance, so that after you have done the will of God, (C)you may receive the promise:

37 “For (D)yet a little while,
And (E)He[a] who is coming will come and will not [b]tarry.
38 Now (F)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 (G)who draw back to [d]perdition, but of those who (H)believe to the saving of the soul.

35 So do not throw away your confidence;(A) it will be richly rewarded.

36 You need to persevere(B) so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised.(C) 37 For,

“In just a little while,
    he who is coming(D) will come
    and will not delay.”[a](E)

38 And,

“But my righteous[b] one will live by faith.(F)
    And I take no pleasure
    in the one who shrinks back.”[c](G)

39 But we do not belong to those who shrink back and are destroyed, but to those who have faith and are saved.
