Habakkuk 2:13-17 English Standard Version (ESV)

13. Behold, is it not from the Lord of hoststhat peoples labor merely for fire,and nations weary themselves for nothing?

14. For the earth will be filledwith the knowledge of the glory of the Lordas the waters cover the sea.

15. “Woe to him who makes his neighbors drink—you pour out your wrath and make them drunk,in order to gaze at their nakedness!

16. You will have your fill of shame instead of glory. Drink, yourself, and show your uncircumcision! The cup in the Lord’s right handwill come around to you,and utter shame will come upon your glory!

17. The violence done to Lebanon will overwhelm you,as will the destruction of the beasts that terrified them, for the blood of man and violence to the earth,to cities and all who dwell in them.
