Habakkuk 1:13-16 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

13. Your eyes are too good to look at evil. You cannot stand to see people doing wrong. So why do you permit such evil? How can you watch while the wicked destroy people who are so much better?

14. You made people like fish in the sea. They are like little sea animals without a leader.

15. The enemy catches all of them with hooks and nets. The enemy catches them in his net and drags them in, and the enemy is very happy with what he caught.

16. His net helps him live like the rich and enjoy the best food. So the enemy worships his net. He makes sacrifices and burns incense to honor his net.
