Habakkuk 1:8-9
New International Version

8 Their horses are swifter(A) than leopards,
    fiercer than wolves(B) at dusk.
Their cavalry gallops headlong;
    their horsemen come from afar.
They fly like an eagle swooping to devour;
9     they all come intent on violence.
Their hordes[a] advance like a desert wind
    and gather prisoners(C) like sand.

Habakkuk 1:8-9
King James Version

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.

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.
