Habakkuk 2:8-10

New International Reader's Version

⁹ “How terrible it will be for the Babylonians!
    They build their kingdom with money
    that they gained by cheating others.
They have tried to make the kingdom
    as secure as possible.
    After all, they did not want to be destroyed.
¹⁰ They have planned to wipe out many nations.
    But they have brought shame on their own kingdom.
    So they must pay with their own lives.
