Habakkuk 1:7 in Context — Habakkuk 1

5 Mirad en las gentes, y ved, y maravillaos pasmosamente; porque obra será hecha en vuestros días, que aun cuando se os contare, no la creeréis.

6 Porque he aquí, yo levanto los Caldeos, gente amarga y presurosa, que camina por la anchura de la tierra para poseer las habitaciones ajenas.

7 Espantosa es y terrible: de ella misma saldrá su derecho y su grandeza.

8 Y serán sus caballos más ligeros que tigres, y más agudos que lobos de tarde; y sus jinetes se multiplicarán: vendrán de lejos sus caballeros, y volarán como águilas que se apresuran á la comida.

9 Toda ella vendrá á la presa: delante de sus caras viento solano; y juntará cautivos como arena.
