The Lord's Answer

⁵“Look among the nations, and see;

wonder and be astounded.

For I am doing a work in your days

that you would not believe if told.

⁶For behold, I am raising up the Chaldeans,

that bitter and hasty nation,

who march through the breadth of the earth,

to seize dwellings not their own.

⁷They are dreaded and fearsome;

their justice and dignity go forth from themselves.

⁸Their horses are swifter than leopards,

more fierce than the evening wolves;

their horsemen press proudly on.

Their horsemen come from afar;

they fly like an eagle swift to devour.

⁹They all come for violence,

all their faces forward.

They gather captives like sand.

¹⁰At kings they scoff,

and at rulers they laugh.

They laugh at every fortress,

for they pile up earth and take it.

¹¹Then they sweep by like the wind and go on,

guilty men, whose own might is their god!”

Habakkuk's Second Complaint

¹²Are you not from everlasting,

O Lord my God, my Holy One?

We shall not die.

O Lord, you have ordained them as a judgment,

and you, O Rock, have established them for reproof.

¹³You who are of purer eyes than to see evil

and cannot look at wrong,

why do you idly look at traitors

and remain silent when the wicked swallows up

the man more righteous than he?

¹⁴You make mankind like the fish of the sea,

like crawling things that have no ruler.

¹⁵He1 brings all of them up with a hook;

he drags them out with his net;

he gathers them in his dragnet;

so he rejoices and is glad.

¹⁶Therefore he sacrifices to his net

and makes offerings to his dragnet;

for by them he lives in luxury,2

and his food is rich.

¹⁷Is he then to keep on emptying his net

and mercilessly killing nations forever?

¹I will take my stand at my watchpost

and station myself on the tower,

and look out to see what he will say to me,

and what I will answer concerning my complaint.
