Habakkuk 1:8
Compare all
6 For indeed I am araising up the Chaldeans,
A bitter and hasty bnation
Which marches through the breadth of the earth,
To possess dwelling places that are not theirs. 
7 They are terrible and dreadful;
Their judgment and their dignity proceed from themselves.
8 Their1 horses also are aswifter than leopards,
And more fierce than evening wolves.
Their chargers2 charge ahead;
Their cavalry comes from afar;
They fly as the beagle that hastens to eat. 
9 “They all come for violence;
Their faces are set like the east wind.
They gather captives like sand.
10 They scoff at kings,
And princes are scorned by them.
They deride every stronghold,
For they heap up earthen mounds and seize it.

The evening wolves - Which with fasting in the day, came out in the evening, fierce and ravenous. Shall spread - All over the land.
