habac chapter 1 the charge that habac
0:14
the prophet received in a vision how
0:17
long Yahweh am I to cry for help while
0:20
you will not listen to cry violence in
0:23
your ear while you will not save why do
0:26
you make me see wrongdoing why do you
0:28
countenance oppression plundering and
0:31
violence confront me contention and
0:34
Discord flourish and so the law loses
0:37
its grip and Justice never emerges since
0:40
the wicked out weats the upright and so
0:42
Justice comes out perverted cast your
0:44
eyes over the Nations look and be amazed
0:49
astounded for I am doing something in
0:51
your own days which you will not believe
0:53
if you are told of it for look I'm
0:56
stirring up the caldan that Fierce and
0:59
fiery Nations who March miles across
1:01
country to seize the homes of others
1:03
they are Dreadful and awesome a law and
1:06
authority to themselves their horses are
1:09
swifter than leopards fiercer Than
1:11
Wolves At Night their Horsemen Gallop on
1:14
their Horsemen advance from afar
1:16
swooping Like an Eagle anxious to feed
1:19
they are all bent on violence their
1:21
faces scorching like an East Wind they
1:24
scoop up prisoners like sand they scoff
1:27
at Kings they despise Prince es they
1:31
make light of all fortresses they Heap
1:33
up Earth and take them then the wind
1:37
gone guilty is he who makes his strength
1:41

1:44
ancient times my holy God Who Never Dies
1:48
Yahweh you have appointed him to execute
1:51
judgment oh rock you have set him firm
1:54
to punish your eyes are too pure to rest
1:57
on evil you cannot look on at oppression
2:01
why do you look on at those who play the
2:03
traitor why say nothing while the wicked
2:06
swallows someone more upright than
2:08
himself why treat people like fish of
2:10
the sea like gliding creatures who have
2:13
no leader they haul them all up on their
2:15
hook they catch them in their net they
2:18
sweep them up in their drag net and then
2:20
make Merry and rejoice and so they offer
2:23
a sacrifice to their net and burn
2:25
incense to their drag net for by these
2:28
they get a rich living and live off the
2:30
fat of the land are they to go on
2:33
unceasingly slaughtering the Nations
2:41
Pity habac chapter 2 I shall stand at my
2:46
post I shall station myself on my
2:49
Watchtower watching to see what he will
2:51
say to me what answer he will make to my
2:54
complaints then Yahweh answered me and
2:57
said write the vision down inscri
2:59
describe it on tablets to be easily read
3:02

3:06
not lie although it may take some time
3:09
