ગુજરાતીહબાક્કુક ૧:૬
કેમ કે જુઓ, એટલે કે ખાલદીઓ જે ક્રૂર તથા ઉતાવળી પ્રજા છે તેઓને હું ઊભા કરું છું, જે ઘરો તેઓનાં પોતાના નથી તેનો કબજો કરવા તેઓ દેશના એક છેડાથી બીજા છેડા સુધી કૂચ કરે છે.
हिन्दीहबक्कूक १:६
देखो, मैं कसदियों को उभारने पर हूँ, वे क्रूर और उतावली करनेवाली जाति हैं, जो पराए वासस्थानों के अधिकारी होने के लिये पृथ्वी भर में फैल गए हैं। (प्रका. 20:9)

In context

4Therefore the law is paralyzed, and justice never prevails; for the wicked surround the righteous; therefore justice comes out perverted.

5“Look among the nations, watch, and wonder marvelously; for I am working a work in your days which you will not believe though it is told you.

6For, behold, I am raising up the Chaldeans, that bitter and hasty nation who march through the width of the earth, to possess dwelling places that are not theirs.

7They are feared and dreaded. Their judgment and their dignity proceed from themselves.

8Their horses also are swifter than leopards, and are more fierce than the evening wolves. Their horsemen press proudly on. Yes, their horsemen come from afar. They fly as an eagle that hurries to devour.
