Habakkuk 1:13-17

13Thou that art of purer eyesH5869 thanH4480 to beholdH7200 evilH7451, and that canst notH3808 lookH7200 on perverseness, wherefore lookest thou uponH413 them that dealH898 treacherouslyH898, and holdest thy peace when the wickedH7563 swalloweth upH7200 the manH7563 that is moreH4480 righteousH6662 thanH4480 he; 14and makest menH120 as the fishes of the seaH3220, as the creepingH7431 things, that have noH3808 rulerH4910 over them? 15He taketh upH5927 allH3605 of them with the angle, he catcheth them in his net, and gathereth them in his dragH1641: therefore he rejoiceth and is gladH8055. 16Therefore he sacrificeth unto his net, and burneth incenseH6999 unto his drag; becauseH3588 by them his portionH2506 is fatH1277, and his meat plenteous. 17Shall he therefore empty his net, and notH3808 spareH2550 to slayH2026 the nationsH1471 continuallyH8548?
