attributed to Habakkuk

“ I cry to you "Violence!" Yet you will not save. 3 Why do you make me look at wickedness, and stare at evil deeds? Plunder and violence are in front of me. There is strife, and contention rises up. [1]
4 For this reason, the law is powerless, and justice never emerges, because the wicked overpower the righteous. For this reason a perversion of justice emerges. 5 Look among the nations, and stare, and be dumbstruck, because he is doing a deed in your days that you would not believe if it were told. ”

“ It shall return to you, the cup of the right-hand of Yahweh, and humiliation upon your honor. 17 Because the violence of Lebanon will cover you, the beastly plunder supports them, from man's blood and Earth's violence, the village and all that settle it.
18 How is a statue useful? Because it's sculptor made it a mask, and a lying teacher: because the creator trusts his own creator over him to make idols dumb. ”

“ Yahweh, for a judgment put him, and a rock to demonstrate his foundations.
13 Pure of eyes for seeing evil, to view ill-labor you will not be able: why view the traitors? You will deafen, when the wicked swallows one more just than he. ”
