HAB 01:01 The burden which Habakkuk the prophet did see.
HAB 01:02 O LORD, how long shall I cry, and thou wilt not hear!
[even] cry out unto thee [of] violence, and thou wilt not save!
HAB 01:03 Why dost thou show me iniquity, and cause [me] to
behold grievance? for spoiling and violence [are] before me: and
there are [that] raise up strife and contention.
HAB 01:04 Therefore the law is slacked, and judgment doth never
go forth: for the wicked doth compass about the righteous;
therefore wrong judgment proceedeth.
HAB 01:05 Behold ye among the heathen, and regard, and wonder
marvellously: for [I] will work a work in your days, [which] ye
will not believe, though it be told [you].
HAB 01:06 For, lo, I raise up the Chaldeans, [that] bitter and
hasty nation, which shall march through the breadth of the land,
to possess the dwellingplaces [that are] not theirs.
HAB 01:07 They [are] terrible and dreadful: their judgment and
their dignity shall proceed of themselves.
HAB 01:08 Their horses also are swifter than the leopards, and
are more fierce than the evening wolves: and their horsemen
shall spread themselves, and their horsemen shall come from far;
they shall fly as the eagle [that] hasteth to eat.
HAB 01:09 They shall come all for violence: their faces shall
sup up [as] the east wind, and they shall gather the captivity
as the sand.
HAB 01:10 And they shall scoff at the kings, and the princes
shall be a scorn unto them: they shall deride every strong hold;
for they shall heap dust, and take it.
HAB 01:11 Then shall [his] mind change, and he shall pass over,
and offend, [imputing] this his power unto his god.
HAB 01:12 [Art] thou not from everlasting, O LORD my God, mine
Holy One? we shall not die. O LORD, thou hast ordained them for
judgment; and, O mighty God, thou hast established them for
correction.
HAB 01:13 [Thou art] of purer eyes than to behold evil, and
canst not look on iniquity: wherefore lookest thou upon them
that deal treacherously, [and] holdest thy tongue when the
wicked devoureth [the man that is] more righteous than he?
HAB 01:14 And makest men as the fishes of the sea, as the
creeping things, [that have] no ruler over them?
HAB 01:15 They take up all of them with the angle, they catch
them in their net, and gather them in their drag: therefore they
rejoice and are glad.
HAB 01:16 Therefore they sacrifice unto their net, and burn
incense unto their drag; because by them their portion [is] fat,
and their meat plenteous.
HAB 01:17 Shall they therefore empty their net, and not spare
continually to slay the nations?
HAB 02:01 I will stand upon my watch, and set me upon the tower,
and will watch to see what he will say unto me, and what I shall
answer when I am reproved.
HAB 02:02 And the LORD answered me, and said, Write the vision,
and make [it] plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it.
HAB 02:03 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.
HAB 02:04 Behold, his soul [which] is lifted up is not upright
in him: but the just shall live by his faith.
HAB 02:05 Yea also, because he transgresseth by wine, [he is] a
proud man, neither keepeth at home, who enlargeth his desire as
hell, and [is] as death, and cannot be satisfied, but gathereth
unto him all nations, and heapeth unto him all people:
