Habakkuk 1:7-9
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
7 Dread and fearsome are they;
their justice and dignity proceed from themselves.(A)
8 Their horses are swifter than leopards,
more menacing than wolves at dusk;
their horses charge.
Their horsemen come from far away;
they fly like an eagle swift to devour.(B)
9 They all come for violence,
with faces pressing[a] forward;
they gather captives like sand.(C)
