Habakkuk 1:2-3, 5-7, 9, 13-14 ISR98 O יהוה, till when shall I cry, and You not hear? I cry to You, “Violence!” and You do not save. Why do You show me wickedness, and cause me to see perversity? For ruin and violence are before me. And there is strife, and contention arises. “Look among the nations and see, and be amazed, be amazed! For a work is being wrought in your days which you would not believe if it were told. “See, I am raising up the Chaldeans, a bitter and hasty nation, who is going through the breadth of the earth, to possess dwelling places that are not theirs. “They are frightening and fearsome, their right-ruling and their exaltation proceed from themselves. “All of them come for violence, the direction of their faces is like the east wind, and they gather captives like sand. You , whose eyes are too clean to see evil, You are not able to look on wrong. Why do You look on those who act treacherously – keep silent when the wrong devours one more righteous than he? And would You make men like fish of the sea, like creeping creatures that have no ruler over them?
