Habakkuk 2:15-17
Common English Bible
15 Doom to the one who makes his companions drunk,
pouring out your wrath in order to see them naked.[a]
16 You have drunk your fill of dishonor rather than glory.
So drink and stagger.[b]
The cup of the Lord’s strong hand will come around to you;
disgrace will engulf you.
17 Because of the violence done to Lebanon, he will overwhelm you;
the destruction of animals will terrify you,
as will human bloodshed and violence throughout the land, the villages,
and all their inhabitants.[c]

pouring it from the wineskin till they are drunk,

Now it is your turn! Drink(D) and let your nakedness be exposed[a]!(E)
The cup(F) from the Lord’s right hand is coming around to you,
and disgrace will cover your glory.
