Habakkuk 1:5
Summary for Hab 1:5-11: 1:5-11 a God’s answer to Habakkuk’s question is startling. God would send a violent people—the Babylonians—to deal with the violence in Judah. The Babylonian army, well-trained and battle-hardened, was an unstoppable force. 1:5 b Look ... look: Two different Hebrew verbs, both of which are here translated look, are translated as see and watch in 1:3 c. This forms a literary link between Habakkuk’s questions in 1:3 d and God’s reply in 1:5-11 e.
