Habakkuk records a dialogue in which the prophet questions why God tolerates injustice and uses the ruthless Babylonians as his instrument. God answers that the righteous will live by faith, and the book ends in trusting praise.
ಇಗೋ, ಹೆಚ್ಚಿಸಿಕೊಂಡವನ ಆತ್ಮವು ತನ್ನಲ್ಲಿ ಯಥಾರ್ಥವಲ್ಲ; ಆದರೆ ನೀತಿವಂತನು ತನ್ನ ವಿಶ್ವಾಸದಿಂದ ಬದುಕುವನು. — Habakkuk 2:4 (Kannada)
Author & setting: The prophet Habakkuk, writing in Judah around 605 BC as Babylon rose to power.
Habakkuk gives voice to honest doubt and models moving from confusion to faith when God’s ways are hard to understand.
