Habakkuk 2:2-8
2And the LORDH3068 answeredH6030 me, and saidH559, WriteH3789 the visionH2377, and make it plainH874 upon tabletsH3871, that he may runH7323 that readethH7121 it. 3For the visionH2377 is yet for an appointed timeH4150, but at the endH7093 it shall speakH6315, and not lieH3576: though it may tarryH4102, waitH2442 for it; because it will surelyH935 comeH935, it will not tarryH309. 4Behold, his soulH5315 who is lifted upH6075 is not uprightH3474 in him: but the justH6662 shall liveH2421 by his faithH530.
5Yea also, because he transgressethH898 by wineH3196, he is a proudH3093 manH1397, neither keepeth at homeH5115, who enlargethH7337 his desireH5315 as hellH7585, and is as deathH4194, and cannot be satisfiedH7646, but gatherethH622 to him all nationsH1471, and heapethH6908 to him all peopleH5971:1 6Shall not all these take upH5375 a parableH4912 against him, and a tauntingH4426 proverbH2420 against him, and sayH559, WoeH1945 to him that increasethH7235 that which is not his! how long? and to him that ladethH3513 himself with thick clayH5671!2 7Shall they not riseH6965 suddenlyH6621 that shall biteH5391 thee, and awakeH3364 that shall oppressH2111 thee, and thou shalt be for bootyH4933 to them? 8Because thou hast laid wasteH7997 manyH7227 nationsH1471, all the remnantH3499 of the peopleH5971 shall lay thee wasteH7997; because of men’sH120 bloodH1818, and for the violenceH2555 of the landH776, of the cityH7151, and of all that dwellH3427 in it.3
