Habakkuk:1:12-2
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Are you not from everlasting ,
O LORD my God ,
mine Holy One ?
we shall not die .
O LORD ,
you have ordained them for judgment ;
and ,
O mighty God ,
you have established them for correction .
*
You are of purer eyes than to behold evil ,
and can not look on iniquity :
wherefore look you upon them that deal treacherously ,
and hold your tongue when the wicked devours the man that is more righteous than he ?
*
And make men as the fishes of the sea ,
as the creeping things ,
that have no ruler over them ?
*
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 .
*
Therefore they sacrifice unto their net ,
and burn incense unto their drag ;
because by them their portion is fat ,
and their food abundant .
*
Shall they therefore empty their net ,
and not spare continually to slay the nations ?
