1. KJV King James Version

   2 O LORD, how long shall I cry, and thou wilt not hear! even cry out unto thee of violence, and thou wilt not save! 3 Why dost thou shew me iniquity, and cause me to behold grievance? for spoiling and violence are before me: and there are that raise up strife and contention.

2. NIV New International Version

   2 How long, Lord, must I call for help,

   but you do not listen?

   Or cry out to you, "Violence!"

   but you do not save?

   3 Why do you make me look at injustice?

   Why do you tolerate wrongdoing?

   Destruction and violence are before me;

   there is strife, and conflict abounds.

3. ESV English Standard Version

   2 O Lord, *Ps. 13:1;89:46how long shall I cry for help,

   and you will not hear?

   Or cry to you *Mic. 6:12"Violence!"

   and you will not save?

   3 *See Jer. 9:2-6Why do you make me see iniquity,

   and why do you idly look at wrong?

   Destruction *[See ver. 2above]and violence are before me;

   strife and contention arise.

4. NLT New Living Translation

   2 How long, O Lord, must I call for help?

   But you do not listen!

   "Violence is everywhere!" I cry,

   but you do not come to save.

   3 Must I forever see these evil deeds?

   Why must I watch all this misery?

   Wherever I look,

   I see destruction and violence.

   I am surrounded by people

   who love to argue and fight.

5. NKJV Nova Versão King James

   2 O Lord, how long shall I cry,

   *Lam. 3:8And You will not hear?

   Even cry out to You, *Mic. 2:1, 2; 3:1–3"Violence!"

   And You will *(Job 21:5–16)not save.

   3 Why do You show me iniquity,

   And cause me to see trouble?

   For plundering and violence are before me;

   There is strife, and contention arises.

6. CSB Christian Standard Bible

   2 How long,  * 1:2 Ps 4:2; 6:3; 13:1Lord, must I call for help  * 1:2 Jb 19:7; Ps 5:2; Lm 3:8

   and you do not listen

   or cry out to you about violence  * 1:2 Jr 6:7; Ezk 7:11,23; 8:17; 12:19; 45:9; Mc 6:12; Hab 1:9; 2:8,17

   and you do not save?

   3 Why do you force me to look at injustice?  * 1:3 Jb 4:8; Ps 5:5; Is 5:7

   Why do you tolerate  * 1:3 Lit observe, also in v. 13  wrongdoing?

   Oppression and violence are right in front of me.

7. DRA Douay-Rheims American 1899

   2 How long, O Lord, shall I cry, and thou wilt not hear? shall I cry out to thee suffering violence, and thou wilt not save? 3 Why hast thou shewn me iniquity and grievance, to see rapine and injustice before me? and there is a judgment, but opposition is more powerful.

8. MSG The Message

   1-4 The problem as God gave Habakkuk to see it:

   God, how long do I have to cry out for help

   before you listen?

   How many times do I have to yell, "Help! Murder! Police!"

   before you come to the rescue?

   Why do you force me to look at evil,

   stare trouble in the face day after day?

   Anarchy and violence break out,

   quarrels and fights all over the place.

   Law and order fall to pieces.

   Justice is a joke.

   The wicked have the righteous hamstrung

   and stand justice on its head.
