7
 Two
things
have I required of thee; deny me
them
not before I die:
8
 Remove far from me vanity and lies: give me neither poverty nor riches; feed me with food convenient for me:
9
 Lest I be full, and deny
thee,
and say, Who
is
the L
ORD
? or lest I be poor, and steal, and take the name of my God
in vain.
1
 The burden which Habakkuk the prophet did see.
2
 O L
ORD
, how long shall I cry, and thou wilt not hear!
even
cry out unto thee
of
violence, and thou wilt not save!
3
 Why dost thou shew me iniquity, and cause
me
to behold grievance? for spoiling and violence
are
before me: and there are
that
raise up strife and contention.
4
 Therefore the law is slacked, and judgment doth never go forth: for the wicked doth compass about the righteous; therefore wrong judgment proceedeth.
5
 Behold ye among the heathen, and regard, and wonder marvellously: for
I
will work a work in your days,
which
ye will not believe, though it be told
you.
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 of themselves.
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 unto his god.
12
Â
Art
thou not from everlasting, O L
ORD
my God, mine Holy One? we shall not die. O L
ORD
, thou hast ordained them for judgment; and, O mighty God, thou hast established them for correction.
13
Â
Thou art
of purer eyes than to behold evil, and canst not look on iniquity: wherefore lookest thou upon them that deal treacherously,
and
holdest thy tongue when the wicked devoureth
the man that is
more righteous than he?
14
 And makest men as the fishes of the sea, as the creeping things,
that have
no ruler over them?
15
 They take up all of them with the angle, they catch them in their net, and gather them in their drag: therefore they rejoice and are glad.
16
 Therefore they sacrifice unto their net, and burn incense unto their drag; because by them their portion
is
fat, and their meat plenteous.
17
 Shall they therefore empty their net, and not spare continually to slay the nations?
2:
1
 I will stand upon my watch, and set me upon the tower, and will watch to see what he will say unto me, and what I shall answer when I am reproved.
2
 And the L
ORD
answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make
it
plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it.
3
 For the vision
is
yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry.
4
 Behold, his soul
which
is lifted up is not upright in him: but the just shall live by his faith.
5
 Yea also, because he transgresseth by wine,
he is
a proud man, neither keepeth at home, who enlargeth his desire as hell, and
is
as death, and cannot be satisfied, but gathereth unto him all nations, and heapeth unto him all people:
6
 Shall not all these take up a parable against him, and a taunting proverb against him, and say, Woe to him that increaseth
that which is
not his! how long? and to him that ladeth himself with thick clay!
7
 Shall they not rise up suddenly that shall bite thee, and awake that shall vex thee, and thou shalt be for booties unto them?
8
 Because thou hast spoiled many nations, all the remnant of the people shall spoil thee; because of men's blood, and
for
the violence of the land, of the city, and of all that dwell therein.
9
 Woe to him that coveteth an evil covetousness to his house, that he may set his nest on high, that he may be delivered from the power of evil!
10
 Thou hast consulted shame to thy house by cutting off many people, and hast sinned
against
thy soul.
11
 For the stone shall cry out of the wall, and the beam out of the timber shall answer it.
12
 Woe to him that buildeth a town with blood, and stablisheth a city by iniquity!
13
 Behold,
is it
not of the L
ORD
of hosts that the people shall labour in the very fire, and the people shall weary themselves for very vanity?
14
 For the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the L
ORD
, as the waters cover the sea.
15
 Woe unto him that giveth his neighbour drink, that puttest thy bottle to
him,
and makest
him
drunken also, that thou mayest look on their nakedness!
16
 Thou art filled with shame for glory: drink thou also, and let thy foreskin be uncovered: the cup of the L
ORD
's right hand shall be turned unto thee, and shameful spewing
shall be
on thy glory.
17
 For the violence of Lebanon shall cover thee, and the spoil of beasts,
which
made them afraid, because of men's blood, and for the violence of the land, of the city, and of all that dwell therein.
18
 What profiteth the graven image that the maker thereof hath graven it; the molten image, and a teacher of lies, that the maker of his work trusteth therein, to make dumb idols?
19
 Woe unto him that saith to the wood, Awake; to the dumb stone, Arise, it shall teach! Behold, it
is
laid over with gold and silver, and
there is
no breath at all in the midst of it.
20
 But the L
ORD
is
in his holy temple: let all the earth keep silence before him.
3:
1
 A prayer of Habakkuk the prophet upon Shigionoth.
2
 O L
ORD
, I have heard thy speech,
and
was afraid: O L
ORD
, revive thy work in the midst of the years, in the midst of the years make known; in wrath remember mercy.
3
 God came from Teman, and the Holy One from mount Paran. Selah. His glory covered the heavens, and the earth was full of his praise.
4
 And
his
brightness was as the light; he had horns
coming
out of his hand: and there
was
the hiding of his power.
5
 Before him went the pestilence, and burning coals went forth at his feet.
6
 He stood, and measured the earth: he beheld, and drove asunder the nations; and the everlasting mountains were scattered, the perpetual hills did bow: his ways
are
everlasting.
7
 I saw the tents of Cushan in affliction:
and
the curtains of the land of Midian did tremble.
8
 Was the L
ORD
displeased against the rivers?
was
thine anger against the rivers?
was
thy wrath against the sea, that thou didst ride upon thine horses
and
thy chariots of salvation?
9
 Thy bow was made quite naked,
according
to the oaths of the tribes,
even thy
word. Selah. Thou didst cleave the earth with rivers.
10
 The mountains saw thee,
and
they trembled: the overflowing of the water passed by: the deep uttered his voice,
and
lifted up his hands on high.
11
 The sun
and
moon stood still in their habitation: at the light of thine arrows they went,
and
at the shining of thy glittering spear.
12
 Thou didst march through the land in indignation, thou didst thresh the heathen in anger.
13
 Thou wentest forth for the salvation of thy people,
even
for salvation with thine anointed; thou woundedst the head out of the house of the wicked, by discovering the foundation unto the neck. Selah.
14
 Thou didst strike through with his staves the head of his villages: they came out as a whirlwind to scatter me: their rejoicing
was
as to devour the poor secretly.
15
 Thou didst walk through the sea with thine horses,
through
the heap of great waters.
16
 When I heard, my belly trembled; my lips quivered at the voice: rottenness entered into my bones, and I trembled in myself, that I might rest in the day of trouble: when he cometh up unto the people, he will invade them with his troops.
17
 Although the fig tree shall not blossom, neither
shall
fruit
be
in the vines; the labour of the olive shall fail, and the fields shall yield no meat; the flock shall be cut off from the fold, and
there shall be
no herd in the stalls:
18
 Yet I will rejoice in the L
ORD
, I will joy in the God of my salvation.
19
 The L
ORD
God
is
my strength, and he will make my feet like hinds'
feet,
and he will make me to walk upon mine high places. To the chief singer on my stringed instruments.
