Habakkuk 2:4-6

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁴ “Behold, as for the ^(A)proud one,
His soul is not right within him;
But the ^(B)righteous will live by his ^[a]faith.
⁵ “Furthermore, ^(C)wine betrays the ^(D)haughty man,
So that he does not ^(E)stay at home.
He ^(F)enlarges 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 ^(G)take up a taunt-song against him,
Even mockery and insinuations against him
And say, ‘^(H)Woe to him who increases what is not his—
For how long—
And makes himself ^[b]rich with loans?’
