Habakkuk 1:13-17

English Standard Version

¹³ You who are ^(A)of purer eyes than to see evil
    and cannot look at wrong,
^(B)why do you idly look at traitors
    and ^(C)remain silent when the wicked swallows up
    the man more righteous than he?
¹⁴ You make mankind like the fish of the sea,
    like crawling things that have no ruler.
^15 (D)He^[a] brings all of them up ^(E)with a hook;
    he drags them out with his net;
he gathers them in his dragnet;
    so he rejoices and is glad.
^16 (F)Therefore he sacrifices to his net
    and makes offerings to his dragnet;
for by them he lives in luxury,^[b]
    and his food is rich.
¹⁷ Is he then to keep on emptying his net
    ^(G)and mercilessly killing nations forever?
