Habakkuk 1:9-11

International Children’s Bible

⁹     They all come to fight.
Their armies march quickly like a whirlwind in the desert.
    Their prisoners are as many as the grains of sand.
¹⁰ The Babylonian soldiers laugh at kings.
    They make fun of rulers.
They laugh at all the strong, walled cities.
    They build dirt roads up to the top of the walls.
    They capture the cities.
¹¹ Then they leave like the wind and move on.
    They are guilty of worshiping their own strength.”
