Habakkuk:1:5-11




noyes@Habakkuk:1:5 @ Behold ye among the nations, and look! Yea, wonder, and be astonished! For I do a work in your days Which ye will not believe though it be told you.

noyes@Habakkuk:1:6 @ For behold, I raise up the Chaldeans, A fierce and swift people, Which go over the breadth of the earth, To take possession of dwelling–places that are not their own.

noyes@Habakkuk:1:7 @ They are terrible and dreadful; From themselves go forth their law and their dignity.

noyes@Habakkuk:1:8 @ Their horses are swifter than leopards, And fiercer than evening wolves. Their horsemen leap proudly; Their horsemen come from far; They fly like an eagle, hastening to devour.

noyes@Habakkuk:1:9 @ All of them come for violence; The multitude of their faces is directed forwards, And they gather captives as sand.

noyes@Habakkuk:1:10 @ They also scoff at kings, And princes are to them a laughing–stock; They deride every stronghold, For they heap up earth and take it.

noyes@Habakkuk:1:11 @ Then their spirit is uplifted, and they transgress, and become guilty; This their strength is made their god.
