Habakkuk 1:15-16

1:15 The Babylonian tyrant pulls them all up with a fishhook;

he hauls them in with his throw net.

When he catches them in his dragnet,

he is very happy.

1:16 Because of his success he offers sacrifices to his throw net

and burns incense to his dragnet;

for because of them he has plenty of food,

and more than enough to eat.

Habakkuk 2:2

The Lord Assures Habakkuk

2:2 The Lord responded:

“Write down this message! Record it legibly on tablets,

so the one who announces it may read it easily.

Habakkuk 2:14-15

2:14 For recognition of the Lord’s sovereign majesty will fill the earth

just as the waters fill up the sea.

2:15 “You who force your neighbor to drink wine are as good as dead

you who make others intoxicated by forcing them to drink from the bowl of your furious anger,

so you can look at their genitals.
