    Habakkuk 1

    1 The burden which Habakkuk the prophet saw.WBS — Habakkuk 1:1

    2 O LORD, how long shall I cry, and thou wilt not hear! even cry out to thee of violence, and thou wilt not save!WBS — Habakkuk 1:2

    3 Why dost thou show me iniquity, and cause me to behold grievance? for devastation and violence are before me: and there are that raise strife and contention.WBS — Habakkuk 1:3

    4 Therefore the law is slackened, and judgment doth never go forth: for the wicked doth encompass the righteous; therefore wrong judgment proceedeth.WBS — Habakkuk 1:4

    5 Behold ye among the heathen, and regard, and wonder marvelously: for I will work a work in your days, which ye will not believe though it be told you.WBS — Habakkuk 1:5

    6 For lo, I raise up the Chaldeans, that bitter and hasty nation, which shall march through the breadth of the land, to possess the dwelling-places that are not theirs.WBS — Habakkuk 1:6

    7 They are terrible and dreadful: their judgment and their dignity shall proceed from themselves.WBS — Habakkuk 1:7

    8 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.WBS — Habakkuk 1:8

    9 They shall come all for violence: their faces shall sup up as the east wind, and they shall gather the captivity as the sand.WBS — Habakkuk 1:9

    10 And they shall scoff at the kings, and the princes shall be a scorn to them: they shall deride every strong hold; for they shall heap dust, and take it.WBS — Habakkuk 1:10

    11 Then shall his mind change, and he shall pass over, and offend, imputing this his power to his god.WBS — Habakkuk 1:11

    12 Art thou not from everlasting, O LORD my God, my Holy One? We shall not die. O LORD, thou hast ordained them for judgment; and O mighty God, thou hast established them for correction.WBS — Habakkuk 1:12

    13 Thou art of purer eyes than to behold evil, and canst not look on iniquity: why lookest thou on them that deal treacherously, and keepest silence when the wicked devoureth the man that is more righteous than he?WBS — Habakkuk 1:13

    14 And makest men as the fishes of the sea, as the creeping animals that have no ruler over them?WBS — Habakkuk 1:14

    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.WBS — Habakkuk 1:15

    16 Therefore they sacrifice to their net, and burn incense to their drag; because by them their portion is fat, and their food plenteous.WBS — Habakkuk 1:16

    17 Shall they therefore empty their net, and not spare continually to slay the nations?WBS — Habakkuk 1:17
