HAB-1:1 The burden which Habakkuk the prophet did see.
HAB-1:2 O LORD, how long shall I cry, and thou wilt not hear! [even] cry out
unto thee [of] violence, and thou wilt not save!
HAB-1:3 Why dost thou show me iniquity, and cause [me] to behold grievance?
for spoiling and violence [are] before me: and there are [that] raise up
strife and contention.
HAB-1:4 Therefore the law is slacked, and judgment doth never go forth: for
the wicked doth compass about the righteous; therefore wrong judgment
proceedeth.
HAB-1:5 Behold ye among the heathen, and regard, and wonder marvellously: for
[I] will work a work in your days, [which] ye will not believe, though it be
told [you].
HAB-1:6 For, lo, I raise up the Chaldeans, [that] bitter and hasty nation,
which shall march through the breadth of the land, to possess the
dwellingplaces [that are] not theirs.
HAB-1:7 They [are] terrible and dreadful: their judgment and their dignity
shall proceed of themselves.
HAB-1:8 Their horses also are swifter than the leopards, and are more fierce
than the evening wolves: and their horsemen shall spread themselves, and their
horsemen shall come from far; they shall fly as the eagle [that] hasteth to
eat.
HAB-1:9 They shall come all for violence: their faces shall sup up [as] the
east wind, and they shall gather the captivity as the sand.
HAB-1:10 And they shall scoff at the kings, and the princes shall be a scorn
unto them: they shall deride every strong hold; for they shall heap dust, and
take it.
HAB-1:11 Then shall [his] mind change, and he shall pass over, and offend,
[imputing] this his power unto his god.
HAB-1:12 [Art] thou not from everlasting, O LORD my God, mine Holy One? we
shall not die. O LORD, thou hast ordained them for judgment; and, O mighty
God, thou hast established them for correction.
HAB-1:13 [Thou art] of purer eyes than to behold evil, and canst not look on
iniquity: wherefore lookest thou upon them that deal treacherously, [and]
holdest thy tongue when the wicked devoureth [the man that is] more righteous
than he?
HAB-1:14 And makest men as the fishes of the sea, as the creeping things,
[that have] no ruler over them?
HAB-1:15 They take up all of them with the angle, they catch them in their
net, and gather them in their drag: therefore they rejoice and are glad.
HAB-1:16 Therefore they sacrifice unto their net, and burn incense unto their
drag; because by them their portion [is] fat, and their meat plenteous.
HAB-1:17 Shall they therefore empty their net, and not spare continually to
slay the nations?
HAB-2:1 I will stand upon my watch, and set me upon the tower, and will watch
to see what he will say unto me, and what I shall answer when I am reproved.
HAB-2:2 And the LORD answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make [it]
plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it.
HAB-2:3 For the vision [is] yet for an appointed time, but at the end it
shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely
come, it will not tarry.
HAB-2:4 Behold, his soul [which] is lifted up is not upright in him: but the
just shall live by his faith.
HAB-2:5 Yea also, because he transgresseth by wine, [he is] a proud man,
neither keepeth at home, who enlargeth his desire as hell, and [is] as death,
and cannot be satisfied, but gathereth unto him all nations, and heapeth unto
him all people:
HAB-2:6 Shall not all these take up a parable against him, and a taunting
proverb against him, and say, Woe to him that increaseth [that which is] not
his! how long? and to him that ladeth himself with thick clay!
HAB-2:7 Shall they not rise up suddenly that shall bite thee, and awake that
shall vex thee, and thou shalt be for booties unto them?
HAB-2:8 Because thou hast spoiled many nations, all the remnant of the people
shall spoil thee; because of men's blood, and [for] the violence of the land,
of the city, and of all that dwell therein.
HAB-2:9 Woe to him that coveteth an evil covetousness to his house, that he
may set his nest on high, that he may be delivered from the power of evil!
HAB-2:10 Thou hast consulted shame to thy house by cutting off many people,
and hast sinned [against] thy soul.
HAB-2:11 For the stone shall cry out of the wall, and the beam out of the
timber shall answer it.
HAB-2:12 Woe to him that buildeth a town with blood, and stablisheth a city
by iniquity!
HAB-2:13 Behold, [is it] not of the LORD of hosts that the people shall
labour in the very fire, and the people shall weary themselves for very
vanity?
HAB-2:14 For the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the
LORD, as the waters cover the sea.
HAB-2:15 Woe unto him that giveth his neighbour drink, that puttest thy
bottle to [him], and makest [him] drunken also, that thou mayest look on their
nakedness!
HAB-2:16 Thou art filled with shame for glory: drink thou also, and let thy
foreskin be uncovered: the cup of the LORD'S right hand shall be turned unto
thee, and shameful spewing [shall be] on thy glory.
HAB-2:17 For the violence of Lebanon shall cover thee, and the spoil of
beasts, [which] made them afraid, because of men's blood, and for the violence
of the land, of the city, and of all that dwell therein.
HAB-2:18 What profiteth the graven image that the maker thereof hath graven
it; the molten image, and a teacher of lies, that the maker of his work
trusteth therein, to make dumb idols?
HAB-2:19 Woe unto him that saith to the wood, Awake; to the dumb stone,
Arise, it shall teach! Behold, it [is] laid over with gold and silver, and
[there is] no breath at all in the midst of it.
HAB-2:20 But the LORD [is] in his holy temple: let all the earth keep silence
before him.
HAB-3:1 A prayer of Habakkuk the prophet upon Shigionoth.
HAB-3:2 O LORD, I have heard thy speech, [and] was afraid: O LORD, revive thy
work in the midst of the years, in the midst of the years make known; in wrath
remember mercy.
HAB-3:3 God came from Teman, and the Holy One from mount Paran. Selah. His
glory covered the heavens, and the earth was full of his praise.
HAB-3:4 And [his] brightness was as the light; he had horns [coming] out of
his hand: and there [was] the hiding of his power.
HAB-3:5 Before him went the pestilence, and burning coals went forth at his
feet.
HAB-3:6 He stood, and measured the earth: he beheld, and drove asunder the
nations; and the everlasting mountains were scattered, the perpetual hills did
bow: his ways [are] everlasting.
HAB-3:7 I saw the tents of Cushan in affliction: [and] the curtains of the
land of Midian did tremble.
HAB-3:8 Was the LORD displeased against the rivers? [was] thine anger against
the rivers? [was] thy wrath against the sea, that thou didst ride upon thine
horses [and] thy chariots of salvation?
HAB-3:9 Thy bow was made quite naked, [according] to the oaths of the tribes,
[even thy] word. Selah. Thou didst cleave the earth with rivers.
HAB-3:10 The mountains saw thee, [and] they trembled: the overflowing of the
water passed by: the deep uttered his voice, [and] lifted up his hands on
high.
HAB-3:11 The sun [and] moon stood still in their habitation: at the light of
thine arrows they went, [and] at the shining of thy glittering spear.
HAB-3:12 Thou didst march through the land in indignation, thou didst thresh
the heathen in anger.
HAB-3:13 Thou wentest forth for the salvation of thy people, [even] for
salvation with thine anointed; thou woundedst the head out of the house of the
