כִּ֣י ע֤וֹד חָזוֹן֙ לַמּוֹעֵ֔ד וְיָפֵ֥חַ לַקֵּ֖ץ וְלֹ֣א יְכַזֵּ֑ב אִם־יִתְמַהְמָהּ֙ חַכֵּה־ל֔וֹ כִּֽי־בֹ֥א יָבֹ֖א לֹ֥א יְאַחֵֽר׃
Sapagkat may pangitain pa para sa takdang panahon, at magsasalita ito tungkol sa wakas, at hindi ito magsisinungaling. Kung ito ay magtagal, hintayin mo ito, sapagkat tiyak na darating ito; hindi ito maaantala.”
Ma'amar Tzipita LeYeshuah
Moreover, He told us,10Habbakuk 2:3 “Though he may tarry, wait for him.” This means, “If you think that the promise that HaShem swore unto Israel will, God forbid, be abrogated, know that this is not so, but instead, wait for him.” This is like a person who waits for something that he knows will surely come to pass, as the verse states, “Grass withers and blossom wilts, but the word of our God stands forever,” and as the above verse concludes, “He shall surely come without delay.”
