Habakkuk 1:7-9

Modern English Version

⁷ They are terrible and dreadful;
    their justice and their dignity
    proceed from themselves.
⁸ Their horses are swifter than leopards,
    more fierce than evening wolves.
Their horsemen charge on;
    their horsemen come from afar;
they fly like the eagle that hastens to eat.
⁹     They all come for violence;
their forces advance like the east wind.
    They gather captives like sand.
