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?(Habakkuk 1:13)
And makest men as the fishes of the sea, as the creeping things, that have no ruler over them?(Habakkuk 1:14)

Therefore they sacrifice unto their net, and burn incense unto their drag; because by them their portion is fat, and their meat plenteous.
Shall they therefore empty their net, and not spare continually to slay the nations?(Habakkuk 1:17)
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.(Habakkuk 2:1)
And the LORD answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it.(Habakkuk 2:2)
