Habakkuk’s Complaint (HAB 1:2-4)

[1:2] O Lord, how long shall I cry for help, and you will not hear? Or cry to you “Violence!” and you will not save?

[1:3] Why do you make me see iniquity, and why do you idly look at wrong? Destruction and violence are before me; strife and contention arise.

[1:4] So the law is paralyzed, and justice never goes forth. For the wicked surround the righteous; so justice goes forth perverted.
