35. Therefore, do not lose your boldness, which has great reward.
36. For you need perseverance so that, after you have done the will of God, you may receive the promise.
37. For yet “in a very little while, the Coming One will come, and He will not delay.

39. But we are not among the timid ones on the path to destruction, but among the faithful ones on the path to the preservation of the soul.
