Habakkuk 2:5-11

2:5

Yea also, because he transgresseth
<0898> (8802)

by wine
<03196>_,

[he is] a proud
<03093>

man
<01397>_,

neither keepeth at home
<05115> (8799)_,

who enlargeth
<07337> (8689)

his desire
<05315>

as hell
<07585>_,

and [is] as death
<04194>_,

and cannot be satisfied
<07646> (8799)_,

but gathereth
<0622> (8799)

unto him all nations
<01471>_,

and heapeth
<06908> (8799)

unto him all people
<05971>_:

{Yea...: or, How much more}

2:6

Shall not all these take up
<05375> (8799)

a parable
<04912>

against him, and a taunting
<04426>

proverb
<02420>

against him, and say
<0559> (8799)_,

Woe
<01945>

to him that increaseth
<07235> (8688)

[that which is] not his! how long? and to him that ladeth
<03513> (8688)

himself with thick clay
<05671>_!

{Woe...: or, Ho, he}

2:7

Shall they not rise up
<06965> (8799)

suddenly
<06621>

that shall bite
<05391> (8802)

thee, and awake
<03364> (8799)

that shall vex
<02111> (8772)

thee, and thou shalt be for booties
<04933>

unto them?

2:8

Because thou hast spoiled
<07997> (8804)

many
<07227>

nations
<01471>_,

all the remnant
<03499>

of the people
<05971>

shall spoil
<07997> (8799)

thee; because of men's
<0120>

blood
<01818>_,

and [for] the violence
<02555>

of the land
<0776>_,

of the city
<07151>_,

and of all that dwell
<03427> (8802)

therein. {blood: Heb. bloods}

<01945>

to him that coveteth
<01214> (8802)

an evil
<07451>

covetousness

to his house
<01004>_,

that he may set
<07760> (8800)

his nest
<07064>

on high
<04791>_,

that he may be delivered
<05337> (8736)

from the power
<03709>

of evil
<07451>_!

{coveteth...: or, gaineth and evil gain} {power...: Heb. palm of the hand}

2:10

Thou hast consulted
<03289> (8804)

shame
<01322>

to thy house
<01004>

by cutting off
<07096> (8800)

many
<07227>

people
<05971>_,

and hast sinned
<02398> (8802)

[against] thy soul
<05315>_.

<068>

shall cry out
<02199> (8799)

of the wall
<07023>_,

and the beam out
<03714>

of the timber
<06086>

shall answer
<06030> (8799)

it. {beam: or, piece, or, fastening} {answer it: or, witness against it}
