Habakkuk 1:14-16
1599 Geneva Bible
14 And makest men as the [a]fishes of the sea, and as the creeping things, that have no ruler over them?
15 They take up all with the angle: they catch it in their net, and gather it in their yarn, whereof they rejoice and are glad.
16 Therefore they sacrifice unto their [b]net, and burn incense unto their yarn, because by them their portion is fat, and their meat plenteous.
