Hab 1:3 Why dost thou shew me iniquity, and cause me to behold grievance? for spoiling and violence are before me: and there are that raise up strife and contention.

‘al-kēn tāp̱ûg̱ tôrāh wəlō’-yēṣē’ lāneṣaḥ mišəpāṭ kî rāšā‘ maḵətîr ’eṯ-haṣṣaddîq ‘al-kēn yēṣē’ mišəpāṭ mə‘uqqāl

Hab 1:4 Therefore the law is slacked, and judgment doth never go forth: for the wicked doth compass about the righteous; therefore wrong judgment proceedeth.

rə’û ḇaggôyim wəhabbîṭû wəhittamməhû təmāhû kî-p̱ō‘al pō‘ēl bîmêḵem lō’ ṯa’ămînû kî yəsuppār

Hab 1:5 Behold ye among the heathen, and regard, and wonder marvelously: for I will work a work in your days which ye will not believe, though it be told you.

kî-hinənî mēqîm ’eṯ-hakkaśədîm haggôy hammar wəhanniməhār hahôlēḵ ləmerəḥăḇê-’ereṣ lārešeṯ mišəkānôṯ llō’-lô

Hab 1:6 For, lo, I raise up the Chaldeans, that bitter and hasty nation, which shall march through the breadth of the land, to possess the dwellingplaces that are not their's.

’āyōm wənôrā’ hû’ mimmennû mišəpāṭô ûśə’ēṯô yēṣē’

Hab 1:7 They are terrible and dreadful: their judgment and their dignity shall proceed of themselves.

wəqallû minnəmērîm sûsāyw wəḥaddû mizzə’ēḇê ‘ereḇ ûp̱āšû pārāšāyw ûp̱ārāšāyw mērāḥôq yāḇō’û yā‘up̱û kənešer ḥāš le’ĕḵôl

Hab 1:8 Their horses also are swifter than the leopards, and are more fierce than the evening wolves: and their horsemen shall spread themselves, and their horsemen shall come from far; they shall fly as the eagle that hasteth to eat.

kullōh ləḥāmās yāḇô’ məg̱ammaṯ pənêhem qāḏîmāh wayye’ĕsōp̱ kaḥôl šeḇî

Hab 1:9 They shall come all for violence: their faces shall sup up as the east wind, and they shall gather the captivity as the sand.

wəhû’ bamməlāḵîm yiṯəqallās wərōzənîm miśəḥāq lô hû’ ləḵāl-miḇəṣār yiśəḥāq wayyiṣəbōr ‘āp̱ār wayyiləkəḏāhh

Hab 1:10 And they shall scoff at the kings, and the princes shall be a scorn unto them: they shall deride every strong hold; for they shall heap dust, and take it.

’āz ḥālap̱ rûaḥ wayya‘ăḇōr wə’āšēm zû ḵōḥô lē’lōhô

Hab 1:11 Then shall his mind change, and he shall pass over, and offend, imputing this his power unto his god.

hălô’ ’attāh miqqeḏem yəhwāh ’ĕlōhay qəḏōšî lō’ nāmûṯ yəhwāh ləmišəpāṭ śamətô wəṣûr ləhôḵîaḥ yəsaḏətô

Hab 1:12 Art thou not from everlasting, O LORD my God, mine Holy One? we shall not die. O LORD, thou hast ordained them for judgment; and, O mighty God, thou hast established them for correction.

ṭəhôr ‘ênayim mērə’ôṯ rā‘ wəhabbîṭ ’el-‘āmāl lō’ ṯûḵāl lāmmāh ṯabbîṭ bôg̱əḏîm taḥărîš bəḇalla‘ rāšā‘ ṣaddîq mimmennû

Hab 1:13 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?

watta‘ăśeh ’āḏām kiḏəg̱ê hayyām kəremeś lō’-mōšēl bô

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

kullōh bəḥakkāh hē‘ălāh yəg̱ōrēhû ḇəḥerəmô wəya’asəp̱ēhû bəmiḵəmarətô ‘al-kēn yiśəmaḥ wəyāg̱îl

Hab 1:15 They take up all of them with the angle, they catch them in their net, and gather them in their drag: therefore they rejoice and are glad.

‘al-kēn yəzabbēaḥ ləḥerəmô wîqaṭṭēr ləmiḵəmarətô kî ḇāhēmmāh šāmēn ḥeləqô ûma’ăḵālô bəri’āh

Hab 1:16 Therefore they sacrifice unto their net, and burn incense unto their drag; because by them their portion is fat, and their meat plenteous.

ha‘al kēn yārîq ḥerəmô wəṯāmîḏ lahărōg̱ gôyim lō’ yaḥəmôl

Hab 1:17 Shall they therefore empty their net, and not spare continually to slay the nations?
