Habakkuk 1:13-15
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
13 Thou who art of purer eyes than to behold evil
and canst not look on wrong,
why dost thou look on faithless men,
and art silent when the wicked swallows up
the man more righteous than he?
14 For thou makest men like the fish of the sea,
like crawling things that have no ruler.
15 He brings all of them up with a hook,
he drags them out with his net,
he gathers them in his seine;
so he rejoices and exults.

Habakkuk 1:13-15
New International Version
13 Your eyes are too pure(A) to look on evil;
you cannot tolerate wrongdoing.(B)
Why then do you tolerate(C) the treacherous?(D)
Why are you silent while the wicked
swallow up those more righteous than themselves?(E)
14 You have made people like the fish in the sea,
like the sea creatures that have no ruler.
15 The wicked(F) foe pulls all of them up with hooks,(G)
he catches them in his net,(H)
he gathers them up in his dragnet;
and so he rejoices and is glad.
