The Lord’s Reply
Be utterly astounded!
For I will work a work in your days
Which you would not believe, though it were told you.
A bitter and hasty bnation
Which marches through the breadth of the earth,
To possess dwelling places that are not theirs.
And more fierce than evening wolves.
Their chargers2 charge ahead;
Their cavalry comes from afar;
They fly as the beagle that hastens to eat.
Their faces are set like the east wind.
They gather captives like sand.
And princes are scorned by them.
They deride every stronghold,
For they heap up earthen mounds and seize it.

Habakkuk 1:7
Their judgment - The law they observe, is their own will. Their dignity - Their authority is all from themselves, without respect to any other law or rule whatever.
