Habakkuk 1:9-17

1:9

They shall come
<0935> (8799)

all for violence
<02555>_:

their faces
<06440>

shall sup up
<04041>

[as] the east wind
<06921>_,

and they shall gather
<0622> (8799)

the captivity
<07628>

as the sand
<02344>_.

{their...: or, the supping up of their faces, etc: or, their faces shall look (Heb. the opposition of their faces) toward the east}

1:10

And they shall scoff
<07046> (8691)

at the kings
<04428>_,

and the princes
<07336> (8802)

shall be a scorn
<04890>

unto them: they shall deride
<07832> (8799)

every strong hold
<04013>_;

for they shall heap
<06651> (8799)

dust
<06083>_,

and take
<03920> (8799)

it.

1:11

Then shall [his] mind
<07307>

change
<02498> (8804)_,

and he shall pass over
<05674> (8799)_,

and offend
<0816> (8804)_,

[imputing] this
<02098>

his power
<03581>

unto his god
<0433>_.

1:12

[Art] thou not from everlasting
<06924>_,

O LORD
<03068>

my God
<0430>_,

mine Holy One
<06918>_?

we shall not die
<04191> (8799)_.

O LORD
<03068>_,

thou hast ordained
<07760> (8804)

them for judgment
<04941>_;

and, O mighty God
<06697>_,

thou hast established
<03245> (8804)

them for correction
<03198> (8687)_.

{mighty...: Heb. rock} {established: Heb. founded}

1:13

[Thou art] of purer
<02889>

eyes
<05869>

than to behold
<07200> (8800)

evil
<07451>_,

and canst
<03201> (8799)

not look
<05027> (8687)

on iniquity
<05999>_:

wherefore lookest
<05027> (8686)

thou upon them that deal treacherously
<0898> (8802)_,

[and] holdest thy tongue
<02790> (8686)

when the wicked
<07563>

devoureth
<01104> (8763)

[the man that is] more righteous
<06662>

than he? {iniquity: or, grievance}

1:14

And makest
<06213> (8799)

men
<0120>

as the fishes
<01709>

of the sea
<03220>_,

as the creeping things
<07431>_,

[that have] no ruler
<04910> (8802)

over them? {creeping: or, moving}

1:15

They take up
<05927> (8689)

all of them with the angle
<02443>_,

they catch
<01641> (8799)

them in their net
<02764>_,

and gather
<0622> (8799)

them in their drag
<04365>_:

therefore they rejoice
<08055> (8799)

and are glad
<01523> (8799)_.

{drag: or, flue net}

1:16

Therefore they sacrifice
<02076> (8762)

unto their net
<02764>_,

and burn incense
<06999> (8762)

unto their drag
<04365>_;

because by them
<01992>

their portion
<02506>

[is] fat
<08082>_,

and their meat
<03978>

plenteous
<01277>_.

{plenteous: or, dainty: Heb. fat}

1:17

Shall they therefore empty
<07324> (8686)

their net
<02764>_,

and not spare
<02550> (8799)

continually
<08548>

to slay
<02026> (8800)

the nations
<01471>_?
