Habakkuk 1:13-17

A – And makest men as the fishes of the sea, as the creeping things, that have no ruler over them?

B – They take up all of them with the angle,

C – they catch them in their net, and gather them in their drag:

D – therefore they rejoice and are glad.

C’ – Therefore they sacrifice unto their net, and
burn incense unto their drag;

B’ – because by them their portion is fat, and their meat
plenteous.

A’ – Shall they therefore empty their net, and not spare continually to slay the nations?
