Habakkuk 1:10-12

GOD’S WORD Translation

¹⁰ They will make fun of kings and treat rulers as a joke.
They will laugh at every fortified city
and build a dirt ramp to capture it.
¹¹ They will move quickly and pass through like the wind.
So they will be guilty,
because their own strength is their god.

¹² Didn’t you exist before time began, O Lord, my God, my Holy One?
We will not die!
O Lord, you have appointed the Babylonians to bring judgment.
O Rock, you have destined them to correct us.
