Habakkuk 2:10-16 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

10. “You have counselled shame for your house, to cut off many peoples, and your being is sinning.

11. “For a stone from the wall cries out, and a beam from the timbers answers it.

12. “Woe to him who builds a town by blood, and establishes a city by unrighteousness!

13. “See, it is not from יהוה of hosts that peoples labour only for fire, and nations weary themselves for naught,

14. for the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the esteem of יהוה, as the waters cover the sea!

15. “Woe to him who gives drink to his neighbour, pouring out your wineskin, and also making him drunk – in order to look on their nakedness!

16. “You shall be filled with shame instead of esteem. Drink, you too, and be exposed as uncircumcised! The cup of the right hand of יהוה shall come around to you, and great shame upon your esteem.
