Habakkuk 2:14-16
Revised Standard Version
14 For the earth will be filled
with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord,
as the waters cover the sea.
15 Woe to him who makes his neighbors drink
of the cup of his wrath,[a] and makes them drunk,
to gaze on their shame!
16 You will be sated with contempt instead of glory.
Drink, yourself, and stagger![b]
The cup in the Lord’s right hand
will come around to you,
and shame will come upon your glory!

pouring it from the wineskin till they are drunk,
so that he can gaze on their naked bodies!
16 You will be filled with shame(D) instead of glory.(E)
Now it is your turn! Drink(F) and let your nakedness be exposed[a]!(G)

and disgrace will cover your glory.
