Habakkuk 2:16-18
New Catholic Bible
16 You will be filled with shame instead of glory
as you stagger in your drunkenness.
The cup in the Lord’s right hand
will be passed on to you,
and shame will overshadow your glory.
17 For the violence done to Lebanon will overwhelm you,
and the massacre of the animals will terrify you,
all as a result of the bloodshed and violence you inflicted
on cities and all who dwell in them.
18 “Of what use is an idol
after its maker has shaped it?
It is only a presentation, a source of lies.
And why should its sculptor place his faith in it,
a dumb idol that he has made?
Habakkuk 2:16-18
New International Version
16 You will be filled with shame(A) instead of glory.(B)
Now it is your turn! Drink(C) and let your nakedness be exposed[a]!(D)
The cup(E) from the Lord’s right hand is coming around to you,
and disgrace will cover your glory.
17 The violence(F) you have done to Lebanon will overwhelm you,
and your destruction of animals will terrify you.(G)
For you have shed human blood;(H)
you have destroyed lands and cities and everyone in them.
