Habakkuk 1:15-17

Contemporary English Version

¹⁵ Then an enemy comes along
and takes them captive
    with hooks and nets.
It makes him so happy
¹⁶ that he offers sacrifices
    to his fishing nets,
because they make him rich
    and provide choice foods.
¹⁷ Will he keep hauling in his nets
and destroying nations
    without showing mercy?
