Habakkuk 1:10

God's Answer To Habakkuk

⁹ “All of them come for violence.
Their horde of faces moves forward.
They collect captives like sand.
¹⁰ “They mock at kings
And rulers are a laughing matter to them.
They laugh at every fortress
And heap up rubble to capture it.
¹¹ “Then they will sweep through like the wind and pass on.
But they will be held guilty,
They whose strength is their god.”
