Habakkuk 1:14

1:14 You made people like fish in the sea,

like animals in the sea that have no ruler.

Habakkuk 1:9

1:9 All of them intend to do violence;

every face is determined.

They take prisoners as easily as one scoops up sand.

Habakkuk 1:11

1:11 They sweep by like the wind and pass on.

But the one who considers himself a god will be held guilty.”

Habakkuk 3:4

3:4 He is as bright as lightning;

a two-pronged lightning bolt flashes from his hand.

This is the outward display of his power.

Habakkuk 2:5

2:5 Indeed, wine will betray the proud, restless man!

His appetite is as big as Sheol’s;

like death, he is never satisfied.

He gathers all the nations;

he seizes all peoples.

Habakkuk 3:14

3:14 You pierce the heads of his warriors with a spear.

They storm forward to scatter us;

they shout with joy as if they were plundering the poor with no opposition.

Habakkuk 1:8

1:8 Their horses are faster than leopards

and more alert than wolves in the desert.

Their horses gallop,

their horses come a great distance;

like a vulture they swoop down quickly to devour their prey.

Habakkuk 3:19

3:19 The sovereign Lord is my source of strength.

He gives me the agility of a deer;

he enables me to negotiate the rugged terrain.

(This prayer is for the song leader. It is to be accompanied by stringed instruments.)

Habakkuk 1:7

1:7 They are frightening and terrifying;

they decide for themselves what is right.

Habakkuk 2:7

2:7 Your creditors will suddenly attack;

those who terrify you will spring into action,

and they will rob you.

Habakkuk 2:16

2:16 But you will become drunk with shame, not majesty.

Now it is your turn to drink and expose your uncircumcised foreskin!

The cup of wine in the Lord’s right hand is coming to you,

and disgrace will replace your majestic glory!
