Habakkuk 1:7-9

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁷ “They are dreaded and ^(A)feared;
Their ^(B)justice and ^[a]authority ^[b]originate with themselves.
⁸ “Their ^(C)horses are swifter than leopards
And ^[c]keener than ^(D)wolves in the evening.
Their ^[d]horsemen come galloping,
Their horsemen come from afar;
They fly like an ^(E)eagle swooping down to devour.
⁹ “All of them come for violence.
^[e]Their horde of ^(F)faces moves forward.
They collect captives like sand.
