Habakkuk 1:6-11

Habakkuk 1:6-11

[6] For, lo, I raise up  the Chaldeans,  that bitter  and hasty  nation,  which shall march  through the breadth  of the land,  to possess  the dwellingplaces  that are not theirs. [7] They are terrible  and dreadful:  their judgment  and their dignity  shall proceed  [8] Their horses  also are swifter  than the leopards,  and are more fierce  than the evening  wolves:  and their horsemen  shall spread  themselves, and their horsemen  shall come  from far;  they shall fly  as the eagle  that hasteth  to eat.  [9] They shall come  all for violence:  their faces  shall sup up  as the east wind,  and they shall gather  the captivity  as the sand.  [10] And they shall scoff  at the kings,  and the princes  shall be a scorn  unto them: they shall deride  every strong hold;  for they shall heap  dust,  and take  it. [11] Then shall his mind  change,  and he shall pass over,  and offend,  imputing this  his power
