Habakkuk 1:8-10
Jubilee Bible 2000
8 Their horses shall be swifter than tigers and are sharper than the evening wolves, and their horsemen shall multiply themselves, and their horsemen shall come from far; they shall fly as eagles that hasten to eat.
9 All of her shall come for the prey, before their faces an east wind, and they shall gather the captives as the sand.
10 And he shall scoff at the kings, and the princes shall be a scorn unto him, he shall deride every fortress and shall heap dust and take it.

Habakkuk 1:8-10
New International Version
8 Their horses are swifter(A) than leopards,
fiercer than wolves(B) at dusk.
Their cavalry gallops headlong;
their horsemen come from afar.
They fly like an eagle swooping to devour;
9 they all come intent on violence.
Their hordes[a] advance like a desert wind
and gather prisoners(C) like sand.
10 They mock kings
and scoff at rulers.(D)
They laugh at all fortified cities;
by building earthen ramps(E) they capture them.
