Habakkuk 1:4-6

International Children’s Bible

⁴ People are not forced to obey the teachings.
    No one receives a fair trial.
Evil people gain while good people lose.
    The judges no longer make fair decisions.

⁵ “You and your people, look at the nations!
    Watch them and be amazed.
I will do something in your lifetime that will amaze you.
    You won’t believe it even when you are told about it.
⁶ I will use the Babylonian people to punish the evil people.
    The Babylonians are cruel and powerful fighters.
They march across the earth.
    They take lands that don’t belong to them.
