Habakkuk 1

The burden
<04853>
which Habakkuk
<02265>
the prophet
<05030>
did see
<02372> (8804)_.
O LORD
<03068>_,
how long shall I cry
<07768> (8765)_,
and thou wilt not hear
<08085> (8799)_!
[even] cry out
<02199> (8799)
unto thee [of] violence
<02555>_,
and thou wilt not save
<03467> (8686)_!
Why dost thou shew
<07200> (8686)
me iniquity
<0205>_,
and cause [me] to behold
<05027> (8686)
grievance
<05999>_?
for spoiling
<07701>
and violence
<02555>
[are] before me: and there are [that] raise up
<05375> (8799)
strife
<07379>
and contention
<04066>_.
Therefore the law
<08451>
is slacked
<06313> (8799)_,
and judgment
<04941>
doth never
<05331>
go forth
<03318> (8799)_:
for the wicked
<07563>
doth compass
<03803> (8688)
about the righteous
<06662>_;
therefore wrong
<06127> (8794)
judgment
<04941>
proceedeth
<03318> (8799)_.
{wrong: or, wrested}
Behold
<07200> (8798)
ye among the heathen
<01471>_,
and regard
<05027> (8685)_,
and wonder
<08539> (8690)
marvellously
<08539> (8798)_:
for [I] will work
<06466> (8802)
a work
<06467>
in your days
<03117>_,
[which] ye will not believe
<0539> (8686)_,
though it be told
<05608> (8792)
[you].
For, lo, I raise up
<06965> (8688)
the Chaldeans
<03778>_,
[that] bitter
<04751>
and hasty
<04116> (8737)
nation
<01471>_,
which shall march
<01980> (8802)
through the breadth
<04800>
of the land
<0776>_,
to possess
<03423> (8800)
the dwellingplaces
<04908>
[that are] not theirs. {breadth: Heb. breadths}
They [are] terrible
<0366>
and dreadful
<03372> (8737)_:
their judgment
<04941>
and their dignity
<07613>
shall proceed
<03318> (8799)
of themselves. {their judgment...: or, from them shall proceed the judgment of these, and the captivity of these}
Their horses
<05483>
also are swifter
<07043> (8804)
than the leopards
<05246>_,
and are more fierce
<02300> (8804)
than the evening
<06153>
wolves
<02061>_:
and their horsemen
<06571>
shall spread
<06335> (8804)
themselves, and their horsemen
<06571>
shall come
<0935> (8799)
from far
<07350>_;
they shall fly
<05774> (8799)
as the eagle
<05404>
[that] hasteth
<02363> (8804)
to eat
<0398> (8800)_.
{fierce: Heb. sharp}
They shall come
<0935> (8799)
all for violence
<02555>_:
their faces
<06440>
shall sup up
<04041>
[as] the east wind
<06921>_,
and they shall gather
<0622> (8799)
the captivity
<07628>
as the sand
<02344>_.
{their...: or, the supping up of their faces, etc: or, their faces shall look (Heb. the opposition of their faces) toward the east}
And they shall scoff
<07046> (8691)
at the kings
<04428>_,
and the princes
<07336> (8802)
shall be a scorn
<04890>
unto them: they shall deride
<07832> (8799)
every strong hold
<04013>_;
for they shall heap
<06651> (8799)
dust
<06083>_,
and take
<03920> (8799)
it.
Then shall [his] mind
<07307>
change
<02498> (8804)_,
and he shall pass over
<05674> (8799)_,
and offend
<0816> (8804)_,
[imputing] this
<02098>
his power
<03581>
unto his god
<0433>_.
[Art] thou not from everlasting
<06924>_,
O LORD
<03068>
my God
<0430>_,
mine Holy One
<06918>_?
we shall not die
<04191> (8799)_.
O LORD
<03068>_,
thou hast ordained
<07760> (8804)
them for judgment
<04941>_;
and, O mighty God
<06697>_,
thou hast established
<03245> (8804)
them for correction
<03198> (8687)_.
{mighty...: Heb. rock} {established: Heb. founded}
[Thou art] of purer
<02889>
eyes
<05869>
than to behold
<07200> (8800)
evil
<07451>_,
and canst
<03201> (8799)
not look
<05027> (8687)
on iniquity
<05999>_:
wherefore lookest
<05027> (8686)
thou upon them that deal treacherously
<0898> (8802)_,
[and] holdest thy tongue
<02790> (8686)
when the wicked
<07563>
devoureth
<01104> (8763)
[the man that is] more righteous
<06662>
than he? {iniquity: or, grievance}
And makest
<06213> (8799)
men
<0120>
as the fishes
<01709>
of the sea
<03220>_,
as the creeping things
<07431>_,
[that have] no ruler
<04910> (8802)
over them? {creeping: or, moving}
They take up
<05927> (8689)
all of them with the angle
<02443>_,
they catch
<01641> (8799)
them in their net
<02764>_,
and gather
<0622> (8799)
them in their drag
<04365>_:
therefore they rejoice
<08055> (8799)
and are glad
<01523> (8799)_.
{drag: or, flue net}
Therefore they sacrifice
<02076> (8762)
unto their net
<02764>_,
and burn incense
<06999> (8762)
unto their drag
<04365>_;
because by them
<01992>
their portion
<02506>
[is] fat
<08082>_,
and their meat
<03978>
plenteous
<01277>_.
{plenteous: or, dainty: Heb. fat}
Shall they therefore empty
<07324> (8686)
their net
<02764>_,
and not spare
<02550> (8799)
continually
<08548>
to slay
<02026> (8800)
the nations
<01471>_?
