Habakkuk 1:3-5

New Century Version

³ Why do you make me see wrong things
    and make me look at trouble?
People are destroying things and hurting others in front of me;
    they are arguing and fighting.
⁴ So the teachings are weak,
    and justice never comes.
Evil people gain while good people lose;
    the judges no longer make fair decisions.

⁵ “Look at the nations!
    Watch them and be amazed and shocked.
I will do something in your lifetime
    that you won’t believe even when you are told about it.
