| Habakkuk 1:2 | O LORD, how long shall I cry, and thou wilt not hear! even cry out unto thee of violence, and thou wilt not save! | Till when, O Jehovah, have I cried, And Thou dost not hear? I cry unto Thee `Violence,` and Thou dost not save. | 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? |
| Habakkuk 1:3 | Why dost thou shew me iniquity, and cause me to behold grievance? for spoiling and violence are before me: and there are that raise up strife and contention. | Why dost Thou shew me iniquity, And perversity dost cause to behold? And spoiling and violence [are] before me, And there is strife, and contention doth lift [itself] up, | 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. |
| Habakkuk 1:4 | Therefore the law is slacked, and judgment doth never go forth: for the wicked doth compass about the righteous; therefore wrong judgment proceedeth. | 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 torn in pieces, and judgment cometh not to the end: because the wicked prevaileth against the just, therefore wrong judgment goeth forth. |
| Habakkuk 1:5 | Behold ye among the heathen, and regard, and wonder marvellously: for I will work a work in your days, which ye will not believe, though it be told you. | Look ye on nations, and behold and marvel greatly. For a work He is working in your days, Ye do not believe though it is declared. | 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. |
| Habakkuk 1:6 | For, lo, I raise up the Chaldeans, that bitter and hasty nation, which shall march through the breadth of the land, to possess the dwellingplaces that are not theirs. | For, lo, I am raising up the Chaldeans, The bitter and hasty nation, That is going to the broad places of earth, To occupy tabernacles not its own. | For behold, I will raise up the Chaldeans, a bitter and swift nation, marching upon the breadth of the earth, to possess the dwelling places that are not their own. |
| Habakkuk 1:7 | They are terrible and dreadful: their judgment and their dignity shall proceed of themselves. | Terrible and fearful it [is], From itself its judgment and its excellency go forth. | They are dreadful, and terrible: from themselves shall their judgment, and their burden proceed. |
| Habakkuk 1:8 | Their horses also are swifter than the leopards, and are more fierce than the evening wolves: and their horsemen shall spread themselves, and their horsemen shall come from far; they shall fly as the eagle that hasteth 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 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. |
| Habakkuk 1:9 | They shall come all for violence: their faces shall sup up as the east wind, and they shall gather the captivity 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. | They shall all come to the prey, their face is like a burning wind: and they shall gather together captives as the sand. |
| Habakkuk 1:10 | And they shall scoff at the kings, and the princes shall be a scorn unto them: they shall deride every strong hold; for they shall heap dust, and 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. | 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. |
| Habakkuk 1:11 | Then shall his mind change, and he shall pass over, and offend, imputing this his power unto his god. | Then passed on hath the spirit, Yea, he doth transgress, And doth ascribe this his power to his god. | Then shall his spirit be changed, and he shall pass, and fall: this is his strength of his god. |
| Habakkuk 1:12 | Art thou not from everlasting, O LORD my God, mine Holy One? we shall not die. O LORD, thou hast ordained them for judgment; and, O mighty God, thou hast established them 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. | 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. |
| Habakkuk 1:13 | Thou art of purer eyes than to behold evil, and canst not look on iniquity: wherefore lookest thou upon them that deal treacherously, and holdest thy tongue when the wicked devoureth the man that is more righteous than he? | 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, | 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? |
| Habakkuk 1:14 | And makest men as the fishes of the sea, as the creeping things, that have no ruler over them? | And Thou makest man as fishes of the sea, As a creeping thing none ruling over him. | And thou wilt make men as the fishes of the sea, and as the creeping things that have no ruler. |
| Habakkuk 1:15 | They take up all of them with the angle, they catch them in their net, and gather them in their drag: therefore they rejoice and are glad. | 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 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. |
| Habakkuk 1:16 | Therefore they sacrifice unto their net, and burn incense unto their drag; because by them their portion is fat, and their meat plenteous. | 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 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. |
| Habakkuk 1:17 | Shall they therefore empty their net, and not spare continually to slay the nations? | Doth he therefore empty his net, And continually to slay nations spare not? | For this cause therefore he spreadeth his net, and will not spare continually to slay the nations. |
