Habakkuk 1:2 - 1:4

« Nahum 3 | Hab 1 | Hab 2 »

2

How long, O Yahweh, will I call for help,

And You will not hear?

I cry out to You, “Violence!”

Yet You do not save.

3

Why do You make me see wickedness

And cause me to look on trouble?

Indeed, devastation and violence are before me;

And there is strife, and contention is lifted up.

4

Therefore the law is ignored,

And justice never comes forth.

For the wicked surround the righteous;

Therefore justice comes forth perverted.
