as a witness forever. ^{▼▼Some Hebrew manuscripts, Syriac, Targum, Vulgate, and Greek versions; Masoretic Text forever and ever}

^g“Write the vision;
make it plain on tablets,
so he may run who reads it.

it hastens to the end—it will not lie.
If it seems slow, ⁱwait for it;
^jit will surely come; it will not delay.
