Hab 1:13-17, Zep 3:5, Rom 3:5-6 | ESV | STEP | You 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?

Habakkuk 1:13-17

13 You who are ^aof purer eyes than to see evil
and cannot look at wrong,
^bwhy do you idly look at traitors
and ^cremain silent when the wicked swallows up
the man more righteous than he?
14 You make mankind like the fish of the sea,
like crawling things that have no ruler.
15 ^dHe ^{▼▼That is, the wicked foe} brings all of them up ^fwith a hook;
he drags them out with his net;
he gathers them in his dragnet;
so he rejoices and is glad.
16 ^gTherefore he sacrifices to his net
and makes offerings to his dragnet;
for by them he lives in luxury, ^{▼▼Hebrew his portion is fat}
and his food is rich.
17 Is he then to keep on emptying his net
ⁱand mercilessly killing nations forever?

Zephaniah 3:5

5 The Lord within her ^jis righteous;
he does no injustice;
every morning he shows forth his justice;
each dawn he does not fail;
but ^kthe unjust knows no shame.

Romans 3:5-6

5 But if our unrighteousness serves to show the righteousness of God, what shall we say? That God is unrighteous to inflict ^lwrath on us? ( ^mI speak in a human way.) 6 By no means! For then how could ⁿGod judge the world?
