Habakkuk 1:7-12

7They are terrible and dreadful: their judgment and their dignity proceed from themselves.

8And their horses are swifter than the leopards, and are more agile than the evening wolves; and their horsemen prance proudly, and their horsemen come from afar: they fly as an eagle that hasteth to devour.

9They come all of them for violence: the crowd of their faces is forwards, and they gather captives as the sand.

10Yea, he scoffeth at kings, and princes are a scorn unto him; he derideth every stronghold: for he heapeth up dust, and taketh it.

11Then will his mind change, and he will pass on, and become guilty: this his power is become his 1god.

12— Art thou not from everlasting, Jehovah my 2God, my Holy One? We shall not die. Jehovah, thou hast ordained him for judgment; and thou, O Rock, hast appointed him for correction.
