,this e,book was produced by ,david ,widger with the help of ,derek ,andrew's text from ,january #aiib and the work of ,bryan ,taylor in ,november #bjjb4 ,book #ce ,habakkuk #ce3jja3jja ,the burden which ,habakkuk the prophet did see4 #ce3jja3jjb ,o ,,lord1 how long shall ,i cry1 and thou wilt not hear6 even cry out unto thee of violence1 and thou wilt not save6 #ce3jja3jjc ,why dost thou shew me iniquity1 and cause me to behold grievance8 for spoiling and violence are before me3 and there are that raise up strife and contention4 #ce3jja3jjd ,therefore the law is slacked1 and judgment doth never go forth3 for the wicked doth compass about the righteous2 therefore wrong judgment proceedeth4 #ce3jja3jje ,behold ye among the heathen1 and regard1 and wonder marvelously3 for ,i will work a work in your days which ye will not believe1 though it be told you4 #ce3jja3jjf ,for1 lo1 ,i raise up the ,chaldeans1 that bitter and hasty nation1 which shall march through the breadth of the land1 to possess the dwellingplaces that are not their's4 #ce3jja3jjg ,they are terrible and dreadful3 their judgment and their dignity shall proceed of themselves4 #ce3jja3jjh ,their horses also are swifter than the leopards1 and are more fierce than the evening wolves3 and their horsemen shall spread themselves1 and their horsemen shall come from far2 they shall fly as the eagle that hasteth to eat4 #ce3jja3jji ,they shall come all for violence3 their faces shall sup up as the east wind1 and they shall gather the captivity as the sand4 #ce3jja3jaj ,and they shall scoff at the kings1 and the princes shall be a scorn unto them3 they shall deride every strong hold2 for they shall heap dust1 and take it4 #ce3jja3jaa ,then shall his mind change1 and he shall pass over1 and offend1 imputing this his power unto his god4 #ce3jja3jab ,art thou not from everlasting1 ,o ,,lord my ,god1 mine ,holy ,one8 we shall not die4 ,o ,,lord1 thou hast ordained them for judgment2 and1 ,o mighty ,god1 thou hast established them for correction4 #ce3jja3jac ,thou art of purer eyes than to behold evil1 and canst not look on iniquity3 wherefore lookest thou upon them that deal treacherously1 and holdest thy tongue when the wicked devoureth the man that is more righteous than he8 #ce3jja3jad ,and makest men as the fishes of the sea1 as the creeping things1 that have no ruler over them8 #ce3jja3jae ,they take up all of them with the angle1 they catch them in their net1 and gather them in their drag3 therefore they rejoice and are glad4 #ce3jja3jaf ,therefore they sacrifice unto their net1 and burn incense unto their drag2 because by them their portion is fat1 and their meat plenteous4 #ce3jja3jag ,shall they therefore empty their net1 and not spare continually to slay the nations8 #ce3jjb3jja ,i will stand upon my watch1 and set me upon the tower1 and will watch to see what he will say unto me1 and what ,i shall answer when ,i am reproved4 #ce3jjb3jjb ,and the ,,lord answered me1 and said1 ,write the vision1 and make it plain upon tables1 that he may run that readeth it4 #ce3jjb3jjc ,for the vision is yet for an appointed time1 but at the end it shall speak1 and not lie3 though it tarry1 wait for it2 because it will surely come1 it will not tarry4 #ce3jjb3jjd ,behold1 his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him3 but the just shall live by his faith4 #ce3jjb3jje ,yea also1 because he transgresseth by wine1 he is a proud man1 neither keepeth at home1 who enlargeth his desire as hell1 and is as death1 and cannot be satisfied1 but gathereth unto him all nations1 and heapeth unto him all people3 #ce3jjb3jjf ,shall not all these take up a parable against him1 and a taunting proverb against him1 and say1 ,woe to him that increaseth that which is not his6 how long8 and to him that ladeth himself with thick clay6 #ce3jjb3jjg ,shall they not rise up suddenly that shall bite thee1 and awake that shall vex thee1 and thou shalt be for booties unto them8 #ce3jjb3jjh ,because thou hast spoiled many nations1 all the remnant of the people shall spoil thee2 because of men's blood1 and for the violence of the land1 of the city1 and of all that dwell therein4 #ce3jjb3jji ,woe to him that coveteth an evil covetousness to his house1 that he may set his nest on high1 that he may be delivered from the power of evil6 #ce3jjb3jaj ,thou hast consulted shame to thy house by cutting off many people1 and hast sinned against thy soul4 #ce3jjb3jaa ,for the stone shall cry out of the wall1 and the beam out of the timber shall answer it4 #ce3jjb3jab ,woe to him that buildeth a town with blood1 and stablisheth a city by iniquity6 #ce3jjb3jac ,behold1 is it not of the ,,lord of hosts that the people shall labour in the very fire1 and the people shall weary themselves for very vanity8 #ce3jjb3jad ,for the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the ,,lord1 as the waters cover the sea4 #ce3jjb3jae ,woe unto him that giveth his neighbour drink1 that puttest thy bottle to him1 and makest him drunken also1 that thou mayest look on their nakedness6 #ce3jjb3jaf ,thou art filled with shame for glory3 drink thou also1 and let thy foreskin be uncovered3 the cup of the ,,lord's right hand shall be turned unto thee1 and shameful spewing shall be on thy glory4 #ce3jjb3jag ,for the violence of ,lebanon shall cover thee1 and the spoil of beasts1 which made them afraid1 because of men's blood1 and for the violence of the land1 of the city1 and of all that dwell therein4 #ce3jjb3jah ,what profiteth the graven image that the maker thereof hath graven it2 the molten image1 and a teacher of lies1 that the maker of his work trusteth therein1 to make dumb idols8 #ce3jjb3jai ,woe unto him that saith to the wood1 ,awake2 to the dumb stone1 ,arise1 it shall teach6 ,behold1 it is laid over with gold and silver1 and there is no breath at all in the midst of it4 #ce3jjb3jbj ,but the ,,lord is in his holy temple3 let all the earth keep silence before him4 #ce3jjc3jja ,a prayer of ,habakkuk the prophet upon ,shigionoth4 #ce3jjc3jjb ,o ,,lord1 ,i have heard thy speech1 and was afraid3 ,o ,,lord1 revive thy work in the midst of the years1 in the midst of the years make known2 in wrath remember mercy4 #ce3jjc3jjc ,god came from ,teman1 and the ,holy ,one from mount ,paran4 ,selah4 ,his glory covered the heavens1 and the earth was full of his praise4 #ce3jjc3jjd ,and his brightness was as the light2 he had horns coming out of his hand3 and there was the hiding of his power4 #ce3jjc3jje ,before him went the pestilence1 and burning coals went forth at his feet4 #ce3jjc3jjf ,he stood1 and measured the earth3 he beheld1 and drove asunder the nations2 and the everlasting mountains were scattered1 the perpetual hills did bow3 his ways are everlasting4 #ce3jjc3jjg ,i saw the tents of ,cushan in affliction3 and the curtains of the land of ,midian did tremble4 #ce3jjc3jjh ,was the ,,lord displeased against the rivers8 was thine anger against the rivers8 was thy wrath against the sea1 that thou didst ride upon thine horses and thy chariots of salvation8 #ce3jjc3jji ,thy bow was made quite naked1 according to the oaths of the tribes1 even thy word4 ,selah4 ,thou didst cleave the earth with rivers4 #ce3jjc3jaj ,the mountains saw thee1 and they trembled3 the overflowing of the water passed by3 the deep uttered his voice1 and lifted up his hands on high4 #ce3jjc3jaa ,the sun and moon stood still in their habitation3 at the light of thine arrows they went1 and at the shining of thy glittering spear4 #ce3jjc3jab ,thou didst march through the land in indignation1 thou didst thresh the heathen in anger4 #ce3jjc3jac ,thou wentest forth for the salvation of thy people1 even for salvation with thine anointed2 thou woundedst the head out of the house of the wicked1 by discovering the foundation unto the neck4 ,selah4 #ce3jjc3jad ,thou didst strike through with his staves the head of his villages3 they came out as a whirlwind to scatter me3 their rejoicing was as to devour the poor secretly4 #ce3jjc3jae ,thou didst walk through the sea with thine horses1 through the heap of great waters4 #ce3jjc3jaf ,when ,i heard1 my belly trembled2 my lips quivered at the voice3 rottenness entered into my bones1 and ,i trembled in myself1 that ,i might rest in the day of trouble3 when he cometh up unto the people1 he will invade them with his troops4 #ce3jjc3jag ,although the fig tree shall not blossom1 neither shall fruit be in the vines2 the labour of the olive shall fail1 and the fields shall yield no meat2 the flock shall be cut off from the fold1 and there shall be no herd in the stalls3 #ce3jjc3jah ,yet ,i will rejoice in the ,,lord1 ,i will joy in the ,god of my salvation4 #ce3jjc3jai ,the ,,lord ,god is my strength1 and he will make my feet like hinds' feet1 and he will make me to walk upon mine high places4 ,to the chief singer on my stringed instruments4
