Habakkuk 1:13-17

[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>_?
