Habakkuk 2
As Habakkuk wonders why the Lord doesn't immediately punish the wicked, the Lord answers -
"...Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it.
3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry.
4 Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: but the just shall live by his faith." (Habakkuk 2:2–4)
Know that the days will come when the wicked will be punished, for now, live by faith. It seems the Lord is giving the wicked opportunities and opportunities to repent.
