Biblical:
NAU Habakkuk 1:1 The oracle which Habakkuk the prophet saw. 2 How long, O LORD, will I call for help, And You will not hear?
I cry out to You, "Violence!"
Yet You do not save.
3 Why do You make me see iniquity, And cause /me /to look on wickedness?
Yes, destruction and violence are before me; Strife exists and contention arises.
4 Therefore the law is ignored And justice is never upheld.
For the wicked surround the righteous; Therefore justice comes out perverted.
5 "Look among the nations!
Observe!
Be astonished!
Wonder!
Because /I am /doing something in your days-- You would not believe if you were told.
6 "For behold, I am raising up the Chaldeans, That fierce and impetuous people Who march throughout the earth To seize dwelling places which are not theirs.
7 "They are dreaded and feared; Their justice and authority originate with themselves.
8 "Their horses are swifter than leopards And keener than wolves in the evening.
Their horsemen come galloping, Their horsemen come from afar; They fly like an eagle swooping /down /to devour.
9 "All of them come for violence.
Their horde of faces /moves /forward.
They collect captives like sand. 10 "They mock at kings And rulers are a laughing matter to them.
They laugh at every fortress And heap up rubble to capture it.
11 "Then they will sweep through /like /the wind and pass on.
But they will be held guilty, They whose strength is their god."
