Habakkuk 1:10-12
International Standard Version
Habakkuk 1:10-12
International Standard Version
10 They make fun of kings,
deriding those who rule.
They laugh at all of the fortified places,
constructing ramps to seize them.
11 Then like[a] the wind sweeping by
they will pass through—
they’re guilty because they say[b] their power is their god.”
The Prophet’s Second Complaint
12 “Haven’t you existed forever,
Lord my God, my Holy One?
We won’t die!
Lord, you’ve prepared them[c] for judgment;
Rock, you’ve sentenced them[d] to correction.
