What does Habakkuk 1:15 mean?

The enemy hauls them all up with a hook, drags them away in a net, and gathers them up in a fishing trap. He’s thrilled with himself and celebrates what he’s caught. Habakkuk 1:15 - Modern Text Bible

(The oppressor (Babylon) easily captures nations and people, treating them like prey, and then boasts about his success.)
