" how long shall I cry, and thou wilt not hear!"
"Be still, and know that I am God." Psalms 46:10
They talk about not hearing and ask why ye "shew me iniquity, and cause me to behold grievance" when "spoiling and violence are before me". Go cry unto the gods you have chosen.[1]
v5 "ye will not believe, though it be told you."
v9-11 "They shall come all for violence... imputing this his power unto his god."
v13 He asks of "when the wicked devoureth the man that is more righteous than he". Everyone is caught in a net that takes the fat for themselves because the people are in a snare.
In Chapter 1:17 Habakkuk talks about "men as the fishes of the sea" and men who "deal treacherously" "catch them in their net..." and they "sacrifice unto their net... and their meat plenteous". v15
And therefore they will not "empty their net, and ... continually to slay the nations?"
Clearly the people are snared and trapped like the merchandise of the fishmonger.
Have the fallen to the error of Balaam and the Nicolaitan and returned to the bondage of Egypt and made covenants with the gods of the world so that the people were compelled to serve as they served the Pharaoh?
[1]

1 ¶ The burden which Habakkuk the prophet did see.

2 O LORD, how long shall I cry, and thou wilt not hear! even cry out[2] unto thee of violence[3], and thou wilt not save![4]

3 Why dost thou shew me iniquity, and cause me to behold grievance? for spoiling and violence[3] are before me: and there are that raise up strife and contention.

4 Therefore the law is slacked, and judgment doth never go forth: for the wicked doth compass about the righteous; therefore wrong judgment proceedeth.

5 ¶ Behold ye among the heathen, and regard, and wonder marvellously: for I will work a work in your days, which ye will not believe, though it be told you.

6 For, lo, I raise up the Chaldeans, that bitter and hasty nation, which shall march through the breadth of the land, to possess the dwellingplaces that are not theirs.

7 They are terrible and dreadful: their judgment and their dignity shall proceed of themselves.

8 Their horses also are swifter than the leopards, and are more fierce than the evening wolves: and their horsemen shall spread themselves, and their horsemen shall come from far; they shall fly as the eagle that hasteth to eat.

9 They shall come all for violence[3]: their faces shall sup up as the east wind, and they shall gather the captivity[5] as the sand.

10 And they shall scoff at the kings, and the princes shall be a scorn unto them: they shall deride every strong hold; for they shall heap dust, and take it.

11 Then shall his mind change, and he shall pass over, and offend, imputing this his power unto his god.

12 ¶ Art thou not from everlasting, O LORD my God, mine Holy One? we shall not die. O LORD, thou hast ordained them for judgment; and, O mighty God, thou hast established them for correction.

13 Thou art of purer eyes than to behold evil, and canst not look on iniquity: wherefore lookest thou upon them that deal treacherously[6], and holdest thy tongue when the wicked devoureth the man that is more righteous than he?

14 And makest men as the fishes of the sea, as the creeping things, that have no ruler over them?

15 They take up all of them with the angle[7], they catch them in their net, and gather them in their drag: therefore they rejoice and are glad.

16 Therefore they sacrifice unto their net, and burn incense unto their drag; because by them their portion is fat, and their meat plenteous.

17 Shall they therefore empty their net, and not spare continually to slay the nations?
