Habakkuk 1:9–13 · Berean Standard Bible

9 All of them come bent on violence; their hordes advance like the east wind; they gather prisoners like sand.

10 They scoff at kings and make rulers an object of scorn. They laugh at every fortress and build up siege ramps to seize it.

11 Then they sweep by like the wind and pass on through. They are guilty; their own strength is their god.”

12 Are You not from everlasting, O LORD, my God, my Holy One? We will not die. O LORD, You have appointed them to execute judgment; O Rock, You have established them for correction.

13 Your eyes are too pure to look upon evil, and You cannot tolerate wrongdoing. So why do You tolerate the faithless? Why are You silent while the wicked swallow up those more righteous than themselves?
