Habakkuk 2:5-6

5Furthermore, 1wine betrays the 2haughty man, So that he does not 3stay at home. He 4enlarges 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 5take up a taunt-song against him, Even mockery and insinuations against him And say, ‘6Woe to him who increases what is not his-- For how long-- And makes himself 7rich with loans?’
