Habakkuk 2:15-17
Evangelical Heritage Version
15 Woe to the person who gives intoxicating drinks to his neighbors, forcing them to drink from his rage,[a] and making them drunk so that he can look at their nakedness. 16 You will be filled with shame instead of honor. Yes, you yourself will drink and expose your own nakedness. The cup in the Lord’s right hand is coming around to you, and complete disgrace will cover your glory.
17 You will be overwhelmed by the violence you have committed against Lebanon. Your devastation of the animals will terrify you,[b] because you shed human blood and did violence to the land, to the town, and to its inhabitants.
