Habakkuk 2:15–19

15 “Woe to you who make 1your neighbors drink,

Who mix in your venom even to make them drunk

So as to look on their nakedness!

16 “You will be filled with disgrace rather than honor.

Now you yourself adrink and 1expose your own nakedness.

The bcup in the Lord’s right hand will come around to you,

And cutter disgrace will come upon your glory.

17 “For the aviolence 1done to Lebanon will 2overwhelm you,

And the devastation of its beasts 3by which you terrified them,

bBecause of human bloodshed and cviolence 4done to the land,

To the town and all its inhabitants.

18 “What aprofit is the 1idol when its maker has carved it,

Or 2an image, a bteacher of falsehood?

For its maker ctrusts in his own handiwork

When he fashions speechless idols.

19 “Woe to him who asays to a piece of wood, ‘bAwake!’

To a mute stone, ‘Arise!’

And that is your teacher?

Behold, it is overlaid with cgold and silver,

And there is dno breath at all inside it.
