In the Aramaic section of Daniel he addresses the nations. He tells them that God is in control and He is faithful to His people. Though His people are often unfaithful to Him, He is still faithful to them. Even allowing them to be taken into captivity shows His faithfulness. You only have to go back to Leviticus to see that God is being faithful to His word. These chapters of Daniel also show that God will vindicate His people and He will judge those nations that reject Him.
Habakkuk also reminds us that though God allows judgment to come upon His people by godless nations He will not allow those nations to go unpunished. Today this is a warning to such nations as North Korea, Saudi Arabia sand Iran. They may defy God today and persecute His people they will one day be judged the Judge of all the earth.
