"Hab 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.
Hab 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?
Hab 1:14  And thou wilt make men as the fishes of the sea, and as the creeping things that have no ruler.
Hab 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.
Hab 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.
Hab 1:17  For this cause therefore he spreadeth his net, and will not spare continually to slay the nations.
Hab 2:1  I will stand upon my watch, and fix my foot upon the tower: and I will watch, to see what will be said to me, and what I may answer to him that reproveth me.
Hab 2:2  And the Lord answered me, and said: Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables: that he that readeth it may run over it.
Hab 2:3  For as yet the vision is far off, and it shall appear at the end, and shall notlie: if it make any delay, wait for it: for it shall surely come, and it shall not be slack.
Hab 2:4  Behold, he that is unbelieving, his soul shall not be right in himself: but the just shall live in his faith."
