Habakkuk 2:8-16

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}
Woe
<01945>
to him that coveteth
<01214> (8802)
an evil
<07451>
covetousness
<01215>
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}
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>_.
For the stone
<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}
Woe
<01945>
to him that buildeth
<01129> (8802)
a town
<05892>
with blood
<01818>_,
and stablisheth
<03559> (8790)
a city
<07151>
by iniquity
<05766>_!
{blood: Heb. bloods}
Behold, [is it] not of the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>
that the people
<05971>
shall labour
<03021> (8799)
in the very
<01767>
fire
<0784>_,
and the people
<03816>
shall weary
<03286> (8799)
themselves for very
<01767>
vanity
<07385>_?
{for...: or, in vain?}
For the earth
<0776>
shall be filled
<04390> (8735)
with the knowledge
<03045> (8800)
of the glory
<03519>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
as the waters
<04325>
cover
<03680> (8762)
the sea
<03220>_.
{with...: or, by knowing the glory}
Woe
<01945>
unto him that giveth his neighbour
<07453>
drink
<08248> (8688)_,
that puttest
<05596> (8764)
thy bottle
<02573>
to [him], and makest [him] drunken
<07937> (8763)
also, that thou mayest look
<05027> (8687)
on their nakedness
<04589>_!
Thou art filled
<07646> (8804)
with shame
<07036>
for glory
<03519>_:
drink
<08354> (8798)
thou also, and let thy foreskin be uncovered
<06188> (8734)_:
the cup
<03563>
of the LORD'S
<03068>
right hand
<03225>
shall be turned
<05437> (8735)
unto thee, and shameful spewing
<07022>
[shall be] on thy glory
<03519>_.
{with...: or, more with shame than with glory}
