Habakkuk 1:15 in context
- 13Thou that art of purer eyes than to behold evil, and that canst not look on perverseness, wherefore lookest thou upon them that deal treacherously, and holdest thy peace when the wicked swalloweth up the man that is more righteous than he;
- 14and makest men as the fishes of the sea, as the creeping things, that have no ruler over them?
- 15He taketh up all of them with the angle, he catcheth them in his net, and gathereth them in his drag: therefore he rejoiceth and is glad.
- 16Therefore he sacrificeth unto his net, and burneth incense unto his drag; because by them his portion is fat, and his food plenteous.
- 17Shall he therefore empty his net, and spare not to slay the nations continually?
