Habakkuk 1:4-6

New Catholic Bible

⁴ As a result, the law becomes ineffective
    and justice never prevails.
The wicked hem in the righteous,
    and judgment becomes perverted.
⁵ “Gaze upon the nations and see.
    You will be amazed, even astounded.
You will not believe it when you are told
    what I am doing in your days.
⁶ For I am stirring up the Chaldeans,
    that savage and unruly people,
who march across the whole earth
    to seize dwellings of other people.
