+
+THE PROPHECY OF HABACUC
+
+HABACUC was a native of Bezocher, and prophesied in JUDA, some time
+before the invasion of the CHALDEANS, which he foretold. He lived to see
+this prophecy fulfilled, and for many years after, according to the
+general opinion, which supposes him to be the same that was brought by
+the ANGEL to DANIEL in BABYLON, Dan. 14.
+
+
+Habacuc Chapter 1
+
+The prophet complains of the wickedness of the people: God reveals to
+him the vengeance he is going to take of them by the Chaldeans.
+
+1:1. The burden that Habacuc the prophet saw.
+
+Burden... Such prophecies more especially are called burdens, as
+threaten grievous evils and punishments.
+
+1:2. How long, O Lord, shall I cry, and thou wilt not hear? shall I cry
+out to thee suffering violence, and thou wilt not save?
+
+1:3. Why hast thou shewn me iniquity and grievance, to see rapine and
+injustice before me? and there is a judgment, but opposition is more
+powerful.
+
+1:4. Therefore the law is torn in pieces, and judgment cometh not to the
+end: because the wicked prevaileth against the just, therefore wrong
+judgment goeth forth.
+
+1:5. Behold ye among the nations, and see: wonder, and be astonished:
+for a work is done in your days, which no man will believe when it shall
+be told.
+
+1:6. For behold, I will raise up the Chaldeans, a bitter and swift
+nation, marching upon the breadth of the earth, to possess the dwelling
+places that are not their own.
+
+1:7. They are dreadful, and terrible: from themselves shall their
+judgment, and their burden proceed.
+
+1:8. Their horses are lighter than leopards, and swifter than evening
+wolves; and their horsemen shall be spread abroad: for their horsemen
+shall come from afar, they shall fly as an eagle that maketh haste to
+eat.
+
+1:9. They shall all come to the prey, their face is like a burning wind:
+and they shall gather together captives as the sand.
+
+1:10. And their prince shall triumph over kings, and princes shall be
+his laughingstock: and he shall laugh at every strong hold, and shall
+cast up a mount, and shall take it.
+
+1:11. Then shall his spirit be changed, and he shall pass, and fall:
+this is his strength of his god.
+
+Then shall his spirit, etc... Viz., the spirit of the king of Babylon.
+It alludes to the judgment of God upon Nabuchodonosor, recorded Dan. 4.,
+and to the speedy fall of the Chaldean empire.
+
+1:12. Wast thou not from the beginning, O Lord my God, my holy one, and
+we shall not die? Lord, thou hast appointed him for judgment: and made
+him strong for correction.
+
+1:13. Thy eyes are too pure to behold evil, and thou canst not look on
+iniquity. Why lookest thou upon them that do unjust things, and holdest
+thy peace when the wicked devoureth the man that is more just than
+himself?
+
+1:14. And thou wilt make men as the fishes of the sea, and as the
+creeping things that have no ruler.
+
+1:15. He lifted up all them with his hook, he drew them in his drag, and
+gathered them into his net: for this he will be glad and rejoice.
+
+1:16. Therefore will he offer victims to his drag, and he will sacrifice
+to his net: because through them his portion is made fat, and his meat
+dainty.
+
+1:17. For this cause therefore he spreadeth his net, and will not spare
+continually to slay the nations.
+
+Habacuc Chapter 2
+
+The prophet is admonished to wait with faith. The enemies of God's
+people shall assuredly be punished.
+
+2:1. I will stand upon my watch, and fix my foot upon the tower: and I
+will watch, to see what will be said to me, and what I may answer to him
+that reproveth me.
+
+Will stand, etc... Waiting to see what the Lord will answer to my
+complaint, viz., that the Chaldeans, who are worse than the Jews, and
+who attribute all their success to their own strength, or to their
+idols, should nevertheless prevail over the people of the Lord. The
+Lord's answer is, that the prophet must wait with patience and faith:
+that all should be set right in due time; and the enemies of God and his
+people punished according to their deserts.
+
+2:2. And the Lord answered me, and said: Write the vision, and make it
+plain upon tables: that he that readeth it may run over it.
+
+2:3. For as yet the vision is far off, and it shall appear at the end,
+and shall notlie: if it make any delay, wait for it: for it shall surely
+come, and it shall not be slack.
+
+2:4. Behold, he that is unbelieving, his soul shall not be right in
+himself: but the just shall live in his faith.
+
+2:5. And as wine deceiveth him that drinketh it: so shall the proud man
+be, and he shall not be honoured: who hath enlarged his desire like
+hell: and is himself like death, and he is never satisfied: but will
+gather together unto him all nations, and heap together unto him all
+people.
+
+As wine deceiveth, etc... Viz., by affording only a short passing
+pleasure; followed by the evils and disgrace that are the usual
+consequences of drunkenness; so shall it be with the proud enemies of
+the people of God; whose success affordeth them only a momentary
+pleasure, followed by innumerable and everlasting evils.
+
+2:6. Shall not all these take up a parable against him, and a dark
+speech concerning him: and it shall be said: Woe to him that heapeth
+together that which is not his own? how long also doth he load himself
+with thick clay?
+
+Thick clay... Ill-gotten goods, that, like mire, both burden and defile
+the soul.
+
+2:7. Shall they not rise up suddenly that shall bite thee: and they be
+stirred up that shall tear thee, and thou shalt be a spoil to them?
+
+2:8. Because thou hast spoiled many nations, all that shall be left of
+the people shall spoil thee: because of men's blood, and for the
+iniquity of the land, of the city, and of all that dwell therein.
+
+2:9. Woe to him that gathereth together an evil covetousness to his
+house, that his nest may be on high, and thinketh he may be delivered
+out of the hand of evil.
+
+2:10. Thou hast devised confusion to thy house, thou hast cut off many
+people, and thy soul hath sinned.
+
+2:11. For the stone shall cry out of the wall: and the timber that is
+between the joints of the building, shall answer.
+
+2:12. Woe to him that buildeth a town with blood, and prepareth a city
+by iniquity.
+
+2:13. Are not these things from the Lord of hosts? for the people shall
+labour in a great fire: and the nations in vain, and they shall faint.
+
+Are not these things, etc... That is, shall not these punishments that
+are here recorded, come from the Lord upon him that is guilty of such
+crimes.-Ibid. The people shall labour, etc... Viz., the enemies of God's
+people.
+
+2:14. For the earth shall be filled, that men may know the glory of the
+Lord, as waters covering the sea.
+
+2:15. Woe to him that giveth drink to his friend, and presenteth his
+gall, and maketh him drunk, that he may behold his nakedness.
+
+2:16. Thou art filled with shame instead of glory: drink thou also, and
+fall fast asleep: the cup of the right hand of the Lord shall compass
+thee, and shameful vomiting shall be on thy glory.
+
+2:17. For the iniquity of Libanus shall cover thee, and the ravaging of
+beasts shall terrify them because of the blood of men, and the iniquity
+of the land, and of the city, and of all that dwell therein.
+
+The iniquity of Libanus... That is, the iniquity committed by the
+Chaldeans against the temple of God, signified here by the name of
+Libanus.
+
+2:18. What doth the graven thing avail, because the maker thereof hath
+graven it, a molten, and a false image? because the forger thereof hath
+trusted in a thing of his own forging, to make dumb idols.
+
+2:19. Woe to him that saith to wood: Awake: to the dumb stone: Arise:
+can it teach? Behold, it is laid over with gold, and silver, and there
+is no spirit in the bowels thereof.
+
+2:20. But the Lord is in his holy temple: let all the earth keep silence
+before him.
+
+Habacuc Chapter 3
+
+3:1. A PRAYER OF HABACUC THE PROPHET FOR IGNORANCES.
+
+For ignorances... That is, for the sins of his people. In the Hebrew, it
+is Sigionoth: which some take to signify a musical instrument, or tune;
+with which this sublime prayer and canticle was to be sung.
+
+3:2. O Lord, I have heard thy hearing, and was afraid.  O Lord, thy
+work, in the midst of the years bring it to life: In the midst of the
+years thou shalt make it known: when thou art angry, thou wilt remember
+mercy.
+
+Thy hearing, etc... That is, thy oracles, the great and wonderful things
+thou hast revealed to me; and I was struck with a reverential fear and
+awe.-Ibid. Thy work... The great work of the redemption of man, which
+thou wilt bring to life and light in the midst of the years, when our
+calamities and miseries shall be at their height.
+
+3:3. God will come from the south, and the holy one from mount Pharan:
+His glory covered the heavens, and the earth is full of his praise.
+
+God will come from the south, etc... God himself will come to give us
+his law, and to conduct us into the true land of promise: as heretofore
+he came from the South (in the Hebrew Theman) and from mount Pharan to
+give his law to his people in the desert. See Deut. 33.2.
+
+3:4. His brightness shall be as the light: horns are in his hands: There
+is his strength hid:
+
+Horns, etc... That is, strength and power, which, by a Hebrew phrase,
+are called horns. Or beams of light, which come forth from his hands. Or
+it may allude to the cross, in the horns of which the hands of Christ
+were fastened, where his strength was hidden, by which he overcame the
+world, and drove out death and the devil.
+
+3:5. Death shall go before his face.  And the devil shall go forth
+before his feet.
+
+Death shall go before his face, etc... Both death and the devil shall be
+the executioners of his justice against his enemies: as they were
+heretofore against the Egyptians and Chanaanites.
+
+3:6. He stood and measured the earth.  He beheld, and melted the
+nations: and the ancient mountains were crushed to pieces.  The hills of
+the world were bowed down by the journeys of his eternity.
+
+He beheld, etc... One look of his eye is enough to melt all the nations,
+and to reduce them to nothing. For all heaven and earth disappear when
+they come before his light. Apoc. 20.11. Ibid. The ancient mountains,
+etc... By the mountains and hills are signified the great ones of the
+world, that persecute the church, whose power was quickly crushed by the
+Almighty.
+
+3:7. I saw the tents of Ethiopia for their iniquity, the curtains of the
+land of Madian shall be troubled.
+
+Ethiopia... the land of the Blacks, and Madian, are here taken for the
+enemies of God and his people: who shall perish for their iniquity.
+
+3:8. Wast thou angry, O Lord, with the rivers? or was thy wrath upon the
+rivers? or thy indignation in the sea?  Who will ride upon thy horses:
+and thy chariots are salvation.
+
+With the rivers, etc... He alludes to the wonders wrought heretofore by
+the Lord in favour of his people Israel, when the waters of the rivers,
+viz., of Arnon and Jordan, and of the Red Sea, retired before their
+face: when he came as it were with his horses and chariots to save them
+when he took up his bow for their defence, in consequene of the oath he
+had made to their tribes: when the mountains trembled, and the deep
+stood with its waves raised up in a heap, as with hands lifted up to
+heaven: when the sun and the moon stood still at his command, etc., to
+comply with his anger, not against the rivers and sea, but against the
+enemies of his people. How much more will he do in favour of his Son:
+and against the enemies of his church?
+
+3:9. Thou wilt surely take up thy bow: according to the oaths which thou
+hast spoken to the tribes.  Thou wilt divide the rivers of the earth.
+
+3:10. The mountains saw thee, and were grieved: the great body of waters
+passed away.  The deep put forth its voice: the deep lifted up its
+hands.
+
+3:11. The sun and the moon stood still in their habitation, in the light
+of thy arrows, they shall go in the brightness of thy glittering spear.
+
+3:12. In thy anger thou wilt tread the earth under foot: in thy wrath
+thou wilt astonish the nations.
+
+3:13. Thou wentest forth for the salvation of thy people: for salvation
+with thy Christ.  Thou struckest the head of the house of the wicked:
+thou hast laid bare his foundation even to the neck.
+
+The head of the house of the wicked... Such was Pharao heretofore: such
+shall Antichrist be hereafter.
+
+3:14. Thou hast cursed his sceptres, the head of his warriors, them that
+came out as a whirlwind to scatter me. Their joy was like that of him
+that devoureth the poor man in secret.
+
+3:15. Thou madest a way in the sea for thy horses, in the mud of many
+waters.
+
+Thou madest a way in the sea, etc... To deliver thy people from the
+Egyptian bondage: and thou shalt work the like wonders in the spiritual
+way, to rescue the children of the church from their enemies.
+
+3:16. I have heard and my bowels were troubled: my lips trembled at the
+voice.  Let rottenness enter into my bones, and swarm under me.  That I
+may rest in the day of tribulation: that I may go up to our people that
+are girded.
+
+I have heard, etc... Viz., the evils that are now coming upon the
+Israelites for their sins; and that shall come hereafter upon all
+impenitent sinners; and the foresight that I have of these miseries
+makes me willing to die, that I may be at rest, before this general
+tribulation comes, in which all good things shall be withdrawn from the
+wicked. Ibid. That I may go up to our people, etc... That I may join the
+happy company in the bosom of Abraham, that are girded, that is,
+prepared for their journey, by which they shall attend their Lord, when
+he shall ascend into heaven. To which high and happy place, my Jesus,
+that is, my Saviour, the great conqueror of death and hell, shall one
+day conduct me rejoicing and singing psalms of praise, ver. 18 and 19.
+
+3:17. For the fig tree shall not blossom: and there shall be no spring
+in the vines. The labour of the olive tree shall fail: and the fields
+shall yield no food: the flock shall be cut off from the fold, and there
+shall be no herd in the stalls.
+
+3:18. But I will rejoice in the Lord: and I will joy in God my Jesus.
+
+3:19. The Lord God is my strength: and he will make my feet like the
+feet of harts: and he the conqueror will lead me upon my high places
+singing psalms.

+unless a copyright notice is included.  Thus, we usually do not
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+We are now trying to release all our eBooks one year in advance
+of the official release dates, leaving time for better editing.
+Please be encouraged to tell us about any error or corrections,

+We produce about two million dollars for each hour we work.  The
+time it takes us, a rather conservative estimate, is fifty hours
+to get any eBook selected, entered, proofread, edited, copyright
+searched and analyzed, the copyright letters written, etc.   Our
+projected audience is one hundred million readers.  If the value
+per text is nominally estimated at one dollar then we produce $2
+million dollars per hour in 2002 as we release over 100 new text
+files per month:  1240 more eBooks in 2001 for a total of 4000+
+We are already on our way to trying for 2000 more eBooks in 2002
+If they reach just 1-2% of the world's population then the total
+will reach over half a trillion eBooks given away by year's end.
+
+The Goal of Project Gutenberg is to Give Away 1 Trillion eBooks!
