Habakkuk 2:5-6

5FurthermoreH637, 1wineH3196 betraysH898 an 2arrogantH3093 manH1397, So that he does not 3achieveH5115 his objectiveH5115. He 4enlargesH7337 his appetiteH5315 like SheolH7585, And he is like deathH4194, neverH3808 satisfiedH7646. He also gathersH622 to himself allH3605 the nationsH1471 And collectsH622 to himself allH3605 the peoplesH5971.

6“Will allH3605 of theseH428 not 5takeH5375 upH5375 a songH4912 ofH4912 ridiculeH4912 againstH5921 him, Even a sayingH4426 and insinuationsH2420 against him And sayH559, ‘6WoeH1945 to him who increasesH7235 what is not his-- For howH4970 longH5704H4970-- And makesH3513 himself 7richH3513 with debtsH5671!’
