Habakkuk 2:4-6

Living Bible

⁴ “Note this: Wicked men trust themselves alone as these Chaldeans do,^[a] and fail; but the righteous man trusts in me and lives! ⁵ What’s more, these arrogant Chaldeans are betrayed by all their wine, for it is treacherous. In their greed they have collected many nations, but like death and hell, they are never satisfied. ⁶ The time is coming when all their captives will taunt them, saying: ‘You robbers! At last justice has caught up with you! Now you will get your just deserts for your oppression and extortion!’
