Habakkuk 1:6-11

6For behold, I raiseH6965 up the ChaldeansH3778, that bitterH4751 and impetuous nationH1471, which marcheth through the breadth of the earthH776, to possessH3423 dwelling-places that are not theirs.

7They are terrible and dreadful: their judgmentH4941 and their dignityH7613 proceed from themselves.

8And their horsesH5483 are swifter than the leopardsH5246, and are more agile than the eveningH6153 wolvesH2061; and their horsemenH6571 prance proudly, and their horsemenH6571 comeH935 from afarH7350: they flyH5774 as an eagleH5404 that hasteth to devourH398.

9They comeH935 all of them for violenceH2555: the crowd of their facesH6440 is forwards, and they gatherH622 captivesH7628 as the sandH2344.

10Yea, he scoffeth at kingsH4428, and princes are a scorn unto him; he derideth every stronghold: for he heapeth up dustH6083, and taketh it.

11ThenH227 will his mind changeH2498, and he will passH5674 on, and becomeH816 guiltyH816: this his powerH3581 is becomeH816 his 1godH430.
