Chabakuk 1:5-7
Orthodox Jewish Bible
5 [Hashem says:] Behold ye the Goyim, and regard, and wonder marvelously; for I will work a work in your yamim which, though it be told you, of it ye will have no emunah (faith).
6 For, hineni, I raise up the Kasdim (Chaldeans), that Goy bitter and impetuous, which shall march far and wide over the earth, to confiscate the mishkanot (dwelling places) that are not their own.
7 They are terrible and dreadful; their mishpat and their dignity shall proceed from themselves.

5 “Look at the nations and watch—
and be utterly amazed.(A)
For I am going to do something in your days

even if you were told.(B)
6 I am raising up the Babylonians,[a](C)

who sweep across the whole earth(D)
to seize dwellings not their own.(E)
