Habakkuk 2:6-8
Easy-to-Read Version
6 But soon enough, all those people will laugh at him and tell stories about his defeat. They will laugh and say, ‘It’s too bad that the man who took so many things will not get to keep them! He made himself rich by collecting debts.’
7 “Strong man, you have taken money from people. One day they will wake up and realize what is happening, and they will stand against you. Then they will take things from you, and you will be very afraid. 8 You have stolen things from many nations, so they will take much from you. You have killed many people and destroyed lands and cities. You have killed all the people there.

Habakkuk 2:6-8
New International Version
6 “Will not all of them taunt(A) him with ridicule and scorn, saying,
“‘Woe to him who piles up stolen goods
and makes himself wealthy by extortion!(B)
How long must this go on?’
7 Will not your creditors suddenly arise?
Will they not wake up and make you tremble?
Then you will become their prey.(C)
8 Because you have plundered many nations,
the peoples who are left will plunder you.(D)
For you have shed human blood;(E)
you have destroyed lands and cities and everyone in them.(F)
