Habakkuk 2:6-8

Holman Christian Standard Bible

The Five Woe Oracles

⁶Won’t all of these take up a taunt against him,
with mockery and riddles about him?
They will say:

Woe to him who amasses what is not his—
how much longer?—
and loads himself with goods taken in pledge.^(A)
⁷Won’t your creditors suddenly arise,
and those who disturb you wake up?
Then you will become spoil for them.^(B)
⁸Since you have plundered many nations,
all the peoples who remain will plunder you—
because of human bloodshed
and violence against lands, cities,
and all who live in them.^(C)
