Habakkuk 1:14-16
Expanded Bible
14 You ·treat [or made] people like fish in the sea,
like sea animals without a ·leader [ruler].
15 ·The enemy [L He] brings them in with hooks.
He catches them in his net
and ·drags [gathers] them in his ·fishnet [dragnet].
So he rejoices and ·sings for joy [is glad].
16 The enemy offers sacrifices to his net
and burns incense to ·worship it [L his dragnet],
because it lets him live ·like the rich [in luxury]
and enjoy ·the best [or plentiful] food.
Habakkuk 1:14-16
New International Version
14 You have made people like the fish in the sea,
like the sea creatures that have no ruler.
15 The wicked(A) foe pulls all of them up with hooks,(B)
he catches them in his net,(C)
he gathers them up in his dragnet;
and so he rejoices and is glad.
16 Therefore he sacrifices to his net
and burns incense(D) to his dragnet,
for by his net he lives in luxury
and enjoys the choicest food.
