17 Is he to keep on emptying his net,
    destroying nations without mercy?(A)

I will stand at my watch(B)
    and station myself on the ramparts;(C)
I will look to see what he will say(D) to me,
    and what answer I am to give to this complaint.[a](E)

  1. Habakkuk 2:1 Or and what to answer when I am rebuked

17 Shall they therefore empty their net, and not spare continually to slay the nations?

I will stand upon my watch, and set me upon the tower, and will watch to see what he will say unto me, and what I shall answer when I am reproved.
