jub - Habakkuk:1

jub@Habakkuk:1:1 @ The burden which Habakkuk the prophet saw.

jub@Habakkuk:1:2 @ O LORD, how long shall I cry, and thou wilt not hear; and raise my voice unto thee because of the violence, and thou wilt not save?

jub@Habakkuk:1:3 @ Why dost thou cause me to see iniquity and cause [me] to behold grievance and destruction and violence before me, in addition to those that raise up strife and contention?

jub@Habakkuk:1:4 @ Therefore the law is weakened, and the judgment does not go forth true: for the wicked compasses about the righteous; therefore wrong judgment proceeds.

jub@Habakkuk:1:5 @ Behold among the Gentiles and regard and wonder marvelously, for a work shall be done in your days [which] ye will not believe, though it be told [you].

jub@Habakkuk:1:6 @ For, behold, I raise up the Chaldeans, [that] bitter and hasty nation, which march through the breadth of the earth to possess the dwellingplaces [that are] not theirs.

jub@Habakkuk:1:7 @ She [is] terrible and dreadful: from her herself shall go forth their rights and their grandeur.

jub@Habakkuk:1:8 @ Their horses shall be swifter than tigers and are sharper than the evening wolves, and their horsemen shall multiply themselves, and their horsemen shall come from far; they shall fly as eagles [that] hasten to eat.

jub@Habakkuk:1:9 @ All of her shall come for the prey, before their faces an east wind, and they shall gather the captives as the sand.

jub@Habakkuk:1:10 @ And he shall scoff at the kings, and the princes shall be a scorn unto him, he shall deride every fortress and shall heap dust and take it.

jub@Habakkuk:1:11 @ Then he shall become arrogant [against God], and he shall pass ahead and shall be [found] guilty, [imputing] this his power unto his god.

jub@Habakkuk:1:12 @ [Art] thou not from the beginning, O LORD my God, my Holy One? we shall not die, O LORD, thou hast ordained him for judgment, and thou hast established him strong for chastisement.

jub@Habakkuk:1:13 @ [Thou art] of purer eyes than to behold evil and canst not look on iniquity: why dost thou look upon those that deal treacherously [and] hold thy tongue when the wicked devour [the man that is] more righteous than he?

jub@Habakkuk:1:14 @ And dost make men as the fishes of the sea, as reptiles [that have] no lord?

jub@Habakkuk:1:15 @ He shall take up all of them with [his] hook; he shall catch them in his net and gather them in his drag: therefore, he shall rejoice and be glad.

jub@Habakkuk:1:16 @ Therefore, he shall sacrifice unto his net and burn incense unto his drag because by them his portion [is] fat, and his food plenteous.

jub@Habakkuk:1:17 @ Shall he therefore empty his net, or have pity to [stop] slaying Gentiles continually?:
