Habakkuk 1:1-3

Jubilee Bible 2000

1 ¶ The burden which Habakkuk the prophet saw.

² O LORD, how long shall I cry, and thou wilt not hear; and raise my voice unto thee because of the violence, and thou wilt not save?

³ Why dost thou cause me to see iniquity and cause me to behold grievance and destruction and violence before me, in addition to those that raise up strife and contention?
