Habakkuk 2:5–9

5 “Furthermore, awine betrays the bhaughty man,

So that he does not cstay at home.

He denlarges his appetite like Sheol,

And he is like death, never satisfied.

He also gathers to himself all nations

And collects to himself all peoples.

6 “Will not all of these atake up a taunt-song against him,

Even mockery and insinuations against him

And say, ‘bWoe to him who increases what is not his—

For how long—

And makes himself 1rich with loans?’

7 “Will not 1your creditors arise up suddenly,

And those who 2collect from you awaken?

Indeed, you will become plunder for them.

8 “Because you have alooted many nations,

All the remainder of the peoples will loot you—

Because of human bloodshed and violence 1done to the land,

To the town and all its inhabitants.

9 “Woe to him who gets aevil gain for his house

To bput his nest on high,

To be delivered from the hand of calamity!
