Habakkuk 1:6-10
6“For behold, I am araising up the Chaldeans,That ▼
▼ Lit bitter
fierce and impetuous peopleWho march ▼
▼ Lit the breadth of
throughout the earthTo ▼
▼ Lit take possession of
,
eseize dwelling places which are not theirs.7“They are dreaded and ffeared;
Their gjustice and ▼
▼ Lit eminence
authority ▼▼ Lit proceeds from
originate with themselves.8“Their jhorses are swifter than leopards
And ▼
▼ Or more eager to attack
keener than lwolves in the evening.Their ▼
▼ Or steeds paw the ground
horsemen come galloping,Their horsemen come from afar;
They fly like an neagle swooping down to devour.
9“All of them come for violence.
▼
▼ Or The eagerness of their faces
Their horde of pfaces moves forward.They collect captives like sand.
10“They qmock at kings
And rulers are a laughing matter to them.
They rlaugh at every fortress
And sheap up rubble to capture it.
