Habakkuk 1:3-5

New International Version

³ Why do you make me look at injustice?
    Why do you tolerate^(A) wrongdoing?^(B)
Destruction and violence^(C) are before me;
    there is strife,^(D) and conflict abounds.
⁴ Therefore the law^(E) is paralyzed,
    and justice never prevails.
The wicked hem in the righteous,
    so that justice^(F) is perverted.^(G)

⁵ “Look at the nations and watch—
    and be utterly amazed.^(H)
For I am going to do something in your days
    that you would not believe,
    even if you were told.^(I)
