Habakkuk 1:6
Berean Standard Bible
For behold, I am raising up the Chaldeans *— that ruthless and impetuous nation which marches through the breadth of the earth to seize dwellings not their own.
Context
4Therefore the law is paralyzed,
and justice never goes forth.
For the wicked hem in the righteous,
so that justice is perverted. 5“Look at the nations and observe—
be utterly astounded!*
For I am doing a work in your days
that you would never believe
even if someone told you.* 6For behold, I am raising up the Chaldeans *—
that ruthless and impetuous nation
which marches through the breadth of the earth
to seize dwellings not their own. 7They are dreaded and feared;
from themselves they derive justice and sovereignty. 8Their horses are swifter than leopards,
fiercer than wolves of the night.
Their horsemen charge ahead,
and their cavalry comes from afar.
They fly like a vulture,
swooping down to devour.
