Habakkuk 1:15
King James Version
Translation: KJV
13Thou 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?Select Habakkuk 1:13
14And makest men as the fishes of the sea, as the creeping things, that have no ruler over them?Select Habakkuk 1:14
15They 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.Select Habakkuk 1:15
16Therefore they sacrifice unto their net, and burn incense unto their drag; because by them their portion is fat, and their meat plenteous.Select Habakkuk 1:16
17Shall they therefore empty their net, and not spare continually to slay the nations?Select Habakkuk 1:17
