Habakkuk 2:5-7

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁵ “Furthermore, ^(A)wine betrays the ^(B)haughty man,
So that he does not ^(C)stay at home.
He ^(D)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 ^(E)take up a taunt-song against him,
Even mockery and insinuations against him
And say, ‘^(F)Woe to him who increases what is not his—
For how long—
And makes himself ^[a]rich with loans?’
⁷ “Will not ^[b]your creditors ^(G)rise up suddenly,
And those who ^[c]collect from you awaken?
Indeed, you will become plunder for them.
