Are you not eternal ,
O Lord my God ,
my Holy One ?
for you there is no death .
O Lord ,
he has been ordered by you for our punishment ;
and by you ,
O Rock ,
he has been marked out to put us right .
bbe @
Habakkuk:1:13 @
Before your holy eyes sin may not be seen ,
and you are unable to put up with wrong ;
why ,
then ,
are your eyes on the false ?
why do you say nothing when the evil-doer puts an end to one who is more upright than himself ?

He has made men like the fishes of the sea ,
like the worms which have no ruler over them .

He takes them all up with his hook ,
he takes them in his net ,
getting them together in his fishing-net :
for which cause he is glad and full of joy .

Habakkuk:1:16 @
For this reason he makes an offering to his net ,
burning perfume to his fishing-net ;
because by them he gets much food and his meat is fat .
bbe @
Habakkuk:1:17 @
For this cause his net is ever open ,
and there is no end to his destruction of the nations .
