Hebrews 10:35-39 CEV
(35) Keep on being brave! It will bring you great rewards. (36) Learn to be patient, so that you will please God and be given what he has promised. (37) As the Scriptures say, "God is coming soon! It won't be very long. Hab.2:3 (38) The people God accepts will live because of their faith. But he isn't pleased with anyone who turns back." Hab.2:4; Zeph. 1:6; Mal. 1:10 (39) We are not like those people who turn back and get destroyed. We will keep on having faith until we are saved.

Hebrews 10:35-39 NWT
35 Do not, therefore, throw away your freeness of speech, which has a great reward to be paid it. 36 For you have need of endurance, in order that, after you have done the will of God, you may receive the [fulfillment of the] promise. 37 For yet "a very little while," and "he who is coming will arrive and will not delay." Hab.2:3 38 "But my righteous one will live by reason of faith," and, "if he shrinks back, my soul has no pleasure in him." Hab.2:4; Zeph. 1:6; Mal. 1:10 39 Now we are not the sort that shrink back to destruction, but the sort that have faith to the preserving alive of the soul.

Hebrews 10:35-39 LITV
Then do not throw away your confidence, which has great reward. (36) For you have need of patience, that having done the will of God you may obtain the promise. (37) For, yet a very little while, and the One coming will come, "and will not delay." Hab.2:3 (38) "But the just shall live by faith;" "and if he draws back," "My soul is not pleased in him." Hab.2:4; Zeph. 1:6; Mal. 1:10 (39) But we are not of those withdrawing to destruction, but of faith, to the preservation of the soul.

Hebrews 10:35-39 ESV
Therefore do not throw away your confidence, which has a great reward. (36) For you have need of endurance, so that when you have done the will of God you may receive what is promised. (37) For, "Yet a little while, and the coming one will come and will not delay; Hab.2:3 (38) but my righteous one shall live by faith, and if he shrinks back, my soul has no pleasure in him." Hab.2:4; Zeph. 1:6; Mal. 1:10 (39) But we are not of those who shrink back and are destroyed, but of those who have faith and preserve their souls.

Hebrews 10:35-39 RV
(35) Cast not away therefore your boldness, which hath great recompense of reward. (36) For ye have need of patience, that, having done the will of God, ye may receive the promise. (37) For yet a very little while, He that cometh shall come, and shall not tarry. Hab.2:3 (38) But my righteous one shall live by faith: And if he shrink back, my soul hath no pleasure in him. Hab.2:4; Zeph. 1:6; Mal. 1:10 (39) But we are not of them that shrink back unto perdition; but of them that have faith unto the saving of the soul.

You will note the reference windows often include more than one translation of the Bible. The reason is to strive to gain the best possible understanding of the original Hebrew and Greek. Since we don't speak those languages, we rely on those who have come before and made the effort to translate those texts into English for us. Considering several translations gives the benefit of the understanding of several translation committees or individuals.
