Habakkuk 1:6-8

EasyEnglish Bible

⁶ I will give more power to the Babylonians.
    They are a cruel nation with brave soldiers.
They march across the whole earth.
    They take cities that do not belong to them.
⁷ They cause people to be very afraid.
    They obey no laws except their own rules.
⁸ Their horses run faster than leopards.
They are more cruel than wolves
    that attack in the evening.
Their riders come on fast horses
    from places that are far away.
They quickly attack their enemies,
    like hungry eagles that fly down to catch chickens.
