Habakkuk 2:5-7

Evangelical Heritage Version

⁵ Indeed, wine^[a] betrays that arrogant and restless one, because he is as greedy as the grave, and like death he is never satisfied. He gathers all the nations and collects all the peoples to himself.

⁶ All these people will make up proverbs and mocking poems against him, won’t they? They will say, “Woe to the one who accumulates what is not his. (How long will this last?) Woe to the one who makes himself rich by foreclosing on collateral.” ⁷ Won’t your creditors rise up suddenly? Won’t those who cause you to tremble wake up? You will become plunder for them.
