+The Book of Habakkuk.
+Chapter 1.
+The word which Habakkuk the prophet saw. 
+How long, O Lord, will your ears be shut to my voice? I make an outcry to you about violent behaviour, but you do not send salvation. 
+Why do you make me see evil-doing, and why are my eyes fixed on wrong? for wasting and violent acts are before me: and there is fighting and bitter argument. 
+For this reason the law is feeble and decisions are not effected: for the upright man is circled round by evil-doers; because of which right is twisted. 
+See among the nations, and take note, and be full of wonder: for in your days I am doing a work in which you will have no belief, even if news of it is given to you. 
+For see, I am sending the Chaldaeans, that bitter and quick-moving nation; who go through the wide spaces of the earth to get for themselves living-places which are not theirs. 
+They are greatly to be feared: their right comes from themselves. 
+And their horses are quicker than leopards and their horsemen more cruel than evening wolves; they come from far away, like an eagle in flight rushing on its food. 
+They are coming all of them with force; the direction of their faces is forward, the number of their prisoners is like the sands of the sea. 
+He makes little of kings, rulers are a sport to him; all the strong places are to be laughed at; for he makes earthworks and takes them. 
+Then his purpose will be changed, over-stepping the limit; he will make his strength his god. 
+Are you not eternal, O Lord my God, my Holy One? for you there is no death. O Lord, he has been ordered by you for our punishment; and by you, O Rock, he has been marked out to put us right. 
+Before your holy eyes sin may not be seen, and you are unable to put up with wrong; why, then, are your eyes on the false? why do you say nothing when the evil-doer puts an end to one who is more upright than himself? 
+He has made men like the fishes of the sea, like the worms which have no ruler over them. 
+He takes them all up with his hook, he takes them in his net, getting them together in his fishing-net: for which cause he is glad and full of joy. 
+For this reason he makes an offering to his net, burning perfume to his fishing-net; because by them he gets much food and his meat is fat. 
+For this cause his net is ever open, and there is no end to his destruction of the nations.
