| Habakkuk 1:2 | How long, O Lord, shall I cry, and thou wilt not hear? shall I cry out to thee suffering violence, and thou wilt not save? | Till when, O Jehovah, have I cried, And Thou dost not hear?

| Habakkuk 1:3 | Why hast thou shewn me iniquity and grievance, to see rapine and injustice before me? and there is a judgment, but opposition is more powerful. | Why dost Thou shew me iniquity, And perversity dost cause to behold?

For destruction and violence are before me. There is strife, and contention rises up. |
| Habakkuk 1:4 | Therefore the law is torn in pieces, and judgment cometh not to the end: because the wicked prevaileth against the just, therefore wrong judgment goeth forth. | Therefore doth law cease, And judgment doth not go forth for ever, For the wicked is compassing the righteous, Therefore wrong judgment goeth forth. | Therefore the law is paralyzed, and justice never goes forth; for the wicked surround the righteous; therefore justice goes forth perverted. |
| Habakkuk 1:5 | Behold ye among the nations, and see: wonder, and be astonished: for a work is done in your days, which no man will believe when it shall be told. | Look ye on nations, and behold and marvel greatly.

| Habakkuk 1:7 | They are dreadful, and terrible: from themselves shall their judgment, and their burden proceed. | Terrible and fearful it [is], From itself its judgment and its excellency go forth. | They are feared and dreaded. Their judgment and their dignity proceed from themselves. |
| Habakkuk 1:8 | Their horses are lighter than leopards, and swifter than evening wolves; and their horsemen shall be spread abroad: for their horsemen shall come from afar, they shall fly as an eagle that maketh haste to eat. | Swifter than leopards have been its horses, And sharper than evening wolves, And increased have its horsemen, Even its horsemen from afar come in, They fly as an eagle, hasting to consume. | Their horses also are swifter than leopards, and are more fierce than the evening wolves. Their horsemen press proudly on. Yes, their horsemen come from afar. They fly as an eagle that hurries to devour. |
| Habakkuk 1:9 | They shall all come to the prey, their face is like a burning wind: and they shall gather together captives as the sand. | Wholly for violence it doth come in, Their faces swallowing up the east wind, And it doth gather as the sand a captivity. | All of them come for violence. Their hordes face the desert. He gathers prisoners like sand. |
| Habakkuk 1:10 | And their prince shall triumph over kings, and princes shall be his laughingstock: and he shall laugh at every strong hold, and shall cast up a mount, and shall take it. | And at kings it doth scoff, And princes [are] a laughter to it, At every fenced place it doth laugh, And it heapeth up dust, and captureth it. | Yes, he scoffs at kings, and princes are a derision to him. He laughs at every stronghold, for he builds up an earthen ramp, and takes it. |
| Habakkuk 1:11 | Then shall his spirit be changed, and he shall pass, and fall: this is his strength of his god. | Then passed on hath the spirit, Yea, he doth transgress, And doth ascribe this his power to his god. | Then he sweeps by like the wind, and goes on. He is indeed guilty, whose strength is his god." |
| Habakkuk 1:12 | Wast thou not from the beginning, O Lord my God, my holy one, and we shall not die? Lord, thou hast appointed him for judgment: and made him strong for correction. | Art not Thou of old, O Jehovah, my God, my Holy One? We do not die, O Jehovah, For judgment Thou hast appointed it, And, O Rock, for reproof Thou hast founded it. | Aren't you from everlasting, Yahweh my God, my Holy One? We will not die. Yahweh, you have appointed him for judgment. You, Rock, have established him to punish. |
| Habakkuk 1:13 | Thy eyes are too pure to behold evil, and thou canst not look on iniquity. Why lookest thou upon them that do unjust things, and holdest thy peace when the wicked devoureth the man that is more just than himself? | Purer of eyes than to behold evil, To look on perverseness Thou art not able, Why dost Thou behold the treacherous? Thou keepest silent when the wicked Doth swallow the more righteous than he, | You who have purer eyes than to see evil, and who cannot look on perversity, why do you tolerate those who deal treacherously, and keep silent when the wicked swallows up the man who is more righteous than he, |

| Habakkuk 1:15 | He lifted up all them with his hook, he drew them in his drag, and gathered them into his net: for this he will be glad and rejoice. | Each of them with a hook he hath brought up, He doth catch it in his net, and gathereth it in his drag, Therefore he doth joy and rejoice. | He takes up all of them with the hook. He catches them in his net, and gathers them in his dragnet. Therefore he rejoices and is glad. |
| Habakkuk 1:16 | Therefore will he offer victims to his drag, and he will sacrifice to his net: because through them his portion is made fat, and his meat dainty. | Therefore he doth sacrifice to his net, And doth make perfume to his drag, For by them [is] his portion fertile, and his food fat. | Therefore he sacrifices to his net, and burns incense to his dragnet, because by them his life is luxurious, and his food is good. |
| Habakkuk 1:17 | For this cause therefore he spreadeth his net, and will not spare continually to slay the nations. | Doth he therefore empty his net, And continually to slay nations spare not? | Will he therefore continually empty his net, and kill the nations without mercy? |
