ESVEnglish Standard Version

For you have need of endurance, so that when you have done the will of God you may receive what is promised. For,

“Yet a little while,

and the coming one will come and will not delay;

but my righteous one shall live by faith,

and if he shrinks back,

my soul has no pleasure in him.”

But we are not of those who shrink back and are destroyed, but of those who have faith and preserve their souls.

NIVNew International Version (2011)

You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised. For,

“In just a little while,

he who is coming will come

and will not delay.”

And,

“But my righteous one will live by faith.

And I take no pleasure

in the one who shrinks back.”

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

CSBChristian Standard Bible

For you need endurance, so that after you have done God’s will, you may receive what was promised.

For yet in a very little while,

the Coming One will come and not delay.

But my righteous one will live by faith;

and if he draws back,

I have no pleasure in him.

But we are not those who draw back and are destroyed, but those who have faith and are saved.

NLTNew Living Translation

Patient endurance is what you need now, so that you will continue to do God’s will. Then you will receive all that he has promised.

“For in just a little while,

the Coming One will come and not delay.

And my righteous ones will live by faith.

But I will take no pleasure in anyone who turns away.”

But we are not like those who turn away from God to their own destruction. We are the faithful ones, whose souls will be saved.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

For you have need of endurance, in order that after you have done the will of God, you may receive what was promised. For yet

“a very, very little while,

and the one who is coming will come and will not delay.

But my righteous one will live by faith,

and if he shrinks back, my soul is not well pleased with him.”

But we are not among those who shrink back to destruction, but among those who have faith to the preservation of our souls.

KJV 1900King James Version

For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise. For yet a little while, and he that shall come will come, and will not tarry. Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him. But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul.
