• Habakkuk 1:5-7
    New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures

    •  5 “Look among the nations and pay attention!

      Stare in amazement and be astounded;

      For something will happen in your days

      That you will not believe even if it is told to you.+

       6 For here I am raising up the Chal·deʹans,+

      The ruthless and impetuous nation.

      They sweep through vast stretches of the earth

      To seize homes not theirs.+

       7 They are frightening and fearsome.

      They establish their own justice and authority.*+
