Habakkuk 1:2-4
New American Standard Bible 1995
2 (A)How long, O Lord, will I call for help,
And You will not hear?
I cry out to You, “Violence!”
Yet You do (B)not save.
3 Why do You make me (C)see iniquity,
And cause me to look on wickedness?
Yes, (D)destruction and violence are before me;
(E)Strife exists and contention arises.
4 Therefore the (F)law is [a]ignored
And justice [b]is never upheld.
For the wicked (G)surround the righteous;
Therefore justice comes out (H)perverted.

Legacy Standard Bible
2 (A)How long, O [a]Yahweh, will I call for help,
And You will not hear?
I cry out to You, “Violence!”
Yet You do (B)not save.
3 Why do You make me (C)see wickedness
And cause me to look on trouble?
Indeed, (D)devastation and violence are before me;
(E)And there is strife, and contention is lifted up.
4 Therefore the (F)law is [b]ignored,
And justice never comes forth.
For the wicked (G)surround the righteous;
Therefore justice comes forth (H)perverted.
