b'Habakkuk 1O Lord, how long shall I cry,And You will not hear?Even cry out to You, \\u201cViolence!\\u201dAnd You will not save.3 Why do You show me iniquity,And cause me to see trouble?For plundering and violence are before me;There is strife, and contention arises.4 Therefore the law is powerless,And justice never goes forth.For the wicked surround the righteous;Therefore perverse judgment proceeds.The Lord\\u2019s Reply5 \\u201cLook among the nations and watch\\u2014Be utterly astounded!For I will work a work in your daysWhich you would not believe, though it were told you.'
