Habakkuk 1:6-8

Revised Standard Version

⁶ For lo, I am rousing the Chalde′ans,
    that bitter and hasty nation,
who march through the breadth of the earth,
    to seize habitations not their own.
⁷ Dread and terrible are they;
    their justice and dignity proceed from themselves.
⁸ Their horses are swifter than leopards,
    more fierce than the evening wolves;
    their horsemen press proudly on.
Yea, their horsemen come from afar;
    they fly like an eagle swift to devour.
