Habakkuk 1:12 Context
10And they shal scoffe at the Kings, and the Princes shall bee a scorne vnto them: they shall deride euery strong holde, for they shall heape dust & take it. 11Then shall his minde change, and he shall passe ouer, and offend, imputing this his power vnto his God. 12¶ Art thou not from euerlasting, O Lord my God, mine Holy one? we shall not die: O Lord, thou hast ordained them for iudgement, and O mightie God, thou hast established them for correction. 13Thou art of purer eyes then to beholde euill, and canst not looke on ininquitie: wherefore lookest thou vpon them that deale treacherously, and holdest thy tongue when the wicked deuoureth the man that is more righteous then hee? 14And makest men as the fishes of the Sea, as the creeping things, that haue no ruler ouer them.
