Habakkuk 1:2
How long, O Lord, must I call for help but You do not hear, or cry out to You, “Violence!” but You do not save?
O Lord, how long shall I cry, and thou wilt not hear! even cry out unto thee of violence, and thou wilt not save!
Lord, how long will I cry, and you will not hear? I cry out to you “Violence!” and will you not save?
Note When rendered in ALL CAPITAL LETTERS, “Lord” or “God” is the translation of God’s Proper Name (Hebrew “יהוה”, usually pronounced Yahweh).
O Jehovah, how long shall I cry, and thou wilt not hear? I cry out unto thee of violence, and thou wilt not save.
