Habakkuk 1:6-10
Read Habakkuk 1 in full →6“For behold, I am araising up the Chaldeans,That bitter and hasty nationWho walks on the breadth of the landTo bpossess dwelling places which are not theirs.7“They are dreaded and afeared;Their bjustice and exaltation come forth from themselves.8“Their ahorses are swifter than leopardsAnd 1sharper than bwolves in the evening.Their 2horsemen come galloping;Their horsemen come from afar;They fly like an ceagle swooping down to devour.9“All of them come for violence.1Their horde of afaces moves forward.And they gather captives like sand.10“And they amock at kings,And rulers are a laughing matter to them.They blaugh at every fortressAnd cheap up dirt and capture it.
