Habakkuk 1:7-12

7TheyH1931 are dreadedH366 and fearedH3372; from themselvesH4480 they deriveH3318 justiceH4941 and sovereigntyH7613.8Their horsesH5483 are swifterH7043 than leopardsH5246, fiercerH2300 than wolvesH2061 of the nightH6153. Their horsemenH6571 charge aheadH6335, and their cavalryH6571 comesH935 from afarH7350. They flyH5774 like a vultureH5404, swooping downH2363 to devourH398.9AllH3605 of them comeH935 bentH4041 on violenceH2555; their hordesH6440 advance like the eastH6921 wind; they gatherH622 prisonersH7628 like sandH2344.10TheyH1931 scoff atH7046 kingsH4428 and make rulersH7336 an object of scornH4890. TheyH1931 laughH7832 at everyH3605 fortressH4013 and build upH6651 siege rampsH6083 to seize itH3920.11ThenH227 they sweep byH2498 like the windH7307 and pass throughH5674. TheyH2098 are guiltyH816; their own strengthH3581 is their godH433.”

12Are YouH859 notH3808 from everlastingH6924,O LORDH3068, my GodH430, my Holy OneH6918?We will not dieH3808H4191.O LORDH3068, You have appointed themH7760to execute judgmentH4941;O RockH6697, You have established themH3245for correctionH3198.
