(B)How long, Lord, have I called for help,
And You do not hear?

(F)Strife exists and contention arises.

Habakkuk’s Complaint

How long,(B) Lord, must I call for help,
    but you do not listen?(C)

    but you do not save?(D)

    Why do you tolerate(E) wrongdoing?(F)
Destruction and violence(G) are before me;
    there is strife,(H) and conflict abounds.
