Habakkuk 1:12-14

GOD’S WORD Translation

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.
¹³ Your eyes are too pure to look at evil.
You can’t watch wickedness.
Why do you keep watching treacherous people?
Why are you silent when wicked people swallow those
who are more righteous than they are?
¹⁴ You make all people like the fish in the sea,
like schools of sea life that have no ruler.
