Habakkuk, a book of prophecy, is concerned with the problem of unpunished evil in the world. It is revealed to Habakkuk that the Chaldean armies are to be God’s means of punishing the wicked and that evil will destroy itself. The book concludes with a poem of thanksgiving and great faith.

Habakkuk 3

3:14 Thou didst strike through with his staves the head of his villages: they came out as a whirlwind to scatter me: their rejoicing was as to devour the poor secretly.
