Habakkuk 2:8-10
International Standard Version
8 Because you plundered many nations,
all of their remnants will plunder you.
Human blood has been shed,[a]
and violence has been done to[b] the land,
to the city, and to all who live in it.”
Judgment on Those who Think They are Safe
9 “Woe to the one who amasses profit upon unjust profit
in order to establish his household,
so he can establish a secure place[c] on the heights
and escape from the power of evil.
10 You have brought shame to yourself[d] by killing many people—
you are forfeiting your own life.
