Habakkuk 1:13


Habakkuk 1:12 Habakkuk 1:13 (KJV) Habakkuk 1:14
[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.
[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?
And makest men as the fishes of the sea, as the creeping things, [that have] no ruler over them?
