Habakkuk 2:11-17
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 2
11
For the stone will cry out from the wall,
And the rafter will answer it from the framework.
12
'Woe to him who builds a city with bloodshed,
And founds a town with violence!
13
Is it not indeed from the
Lord
of armies
That peoples labor
merely
for fire,
And nations become weary for nothing?
14
For the earth will be filled
With the knowledge of the glory of the
Lord
,
As the waters cover the sea.
15
'Woe to him who makes his neighbor drink;
To you who mix in your venom even to make
your neighbors
drunk,
So as to look at their genitalia!
16
You will be filled with disgrace rather than honor.
Drink, you yourself, and expose your
own
foreskin!
The cup in the
Lord
’S right hand will come around to you,
And utter disgrace
will come
upon your glory.
17
For the violence done to Lebanon will overwhelm you,
And the devastation of
its
animals by which you terrified them,
Because of human bloodshed and violence done to the land,
To the town and all its inhabitants.
King James Version
Chapter 2
11
For the stone shall cry out of the wall, and the beam out of the timber shall answer it.
12
Woe to him that buildeth a town with blood, and stablisheth a city by iniquity!
13
Behold, is it not of the
Lord
of hosts that the people shall labour in the very fire, and the people shall weary themselves for very vanity?
14
For the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the
Lord
, as the waters cover the sea.
15
Woe unto him that giveth his neighbour drink, that puttest thy bottle to him, and makest him drunken also, that thou mayest look on their nakedness!
16
Thou art filled with shame for glory: drink thou also, and let thy foreskin be uncovered: the cup of the
Lord
'S right hand shall be turned unto thee, and shameful spewing shall be on thy glory.
17
For the violence of Lebanon shall cover thee, and the spoil of beasts, which made them afraid, because of men's blood, and for the violence of the land, of the city, and of all that dwell therein.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 2
11
For the stones will cry out from the wall,
and the rafters will answer them
from the woodwork.
12
Woe to him who builds a city with bloodshed
and founds a town with injustice!
13
Is it not from the
Lord
of Armies
that the peoples labor only to fuel the fire
and countries exhaust themselves for nothing?
14
For the earth will be filled
with the knowledge of the
Lord
’s glory,
as the water covers the sea.
15
Woe to him who gives his neighbors drink,
pouring out your wrath
and even making them drunk,
in order to look at their nakedness!
16
You will be filled with disgrace instead of glory.
You also—drink,
and expose your uncircumcision!
The cup in the
Lord
’s right hand
will come around to you,
and utter disgrace will cover your glory.
17
For your violence against Lebanon
will overwhelm you;
the destruction of animals will terrify you
because of your human bloodshed and violence
against lands, cities, and all who live in them.
New Living Translation
Chapter 2
11
The very stones in the walls cry out against you,
and the beams in the ceilings echo the complaint.
12
'What sorrow awaits you who build cities
with money gained through murder and corruption!
13
Has not the
Lord
of Heaven’s Armies promised
that the wealth of nations will turn to ashes?
They work so hard,
but all in vain!
14
For as the waters fill the sea,
the earth will be filled with an awareness
of the glory of the
Lord
.
15
'What sorrow awaits you who make your neighbors drunk!
You force your cup on them
so you can gloat over their shameful nakedness.
16
But soon it will be your turn to be disgraced.
Come, drink and be exposed!
Drink from the cup of the
Lord
’s judgment,
and all your glory will be turned to shame.
17
You cut down the forests of Lebanon.
Now you will be cut down.
You destroyed the wild animals,
so now their terror will be yours.
You committed murder throughout the countryside
and filled the towns with violence.
English Standard Version
Chapter 2
11
For the stone will cry out from the wall,
and the beam from the woodwork respond.
12
"Woe to him who builds a town with blood
and founds a city on iniquity!
13
Behold, is it not from the
Lord
of hosts
that peoples labor merely for fire,
and nations weary themselves for nothing?
14
For the earth will be filled
with the knowledge of the glory of the
Lord
as the waters cover the sea.
15
"Woe to him who makes his neighbors drink —
you pour out your wrath and make them drunk,
in order to gaze at their nakedness!
16
You will have your fill of shame instead of glory.
Drink, yourself, and show your uncircumcision!
The cup in the
Lord
's right hand
will come around to you,
and utter shame will come upon your glory!
17
The violence done to Lebanon will overwhelm you,
as will the destruction of the beasts that terrified them,
for the blood of man and violence to the earth,
to cities and all who dwell in them.
New International Version
Chapter 2
11
The stones of the wall will cry out,
and the beams of the woodwork will echo it.
12
"Woe to him who builds a city with bloodshed
and establishes a town by injustice!
13
Has not the
Lord
Almighty determined
that the people’s labor is only fuel for the fire,
that the nations exhaust themselves for nothing?
14
For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the
Lord
as the waters cover the sea.
15
"Woe to him who gives drink to his neighbors,
pouring it from the wineskin till they are drunk,
so that he can gaze on their naked bodies!
16
You will be filled with shame instead of glory.
Now it is your turn! Drink and let your nakedness be exposed !
The cup from the
Lord
’s right hand is coming around to you,
and disgrace will cover your glory.
17
The violence you have done to Lebanon will overwhelm you,
and your destruction of animals will terrify you.
For you have shed human blood;
you have destroyed lands and cities and everyone in them.
New King James Version
Chapter 2
11
For the stone will cry out from the wall,
And the beam from the timbers will answer it.
12
“Woe to him who builds a town with bloodshed,
Who establishes a city by iniquity!
13
Behold,
is it
not of the
Lord
of hosts
That the peoples labor to feed the fire,
And nations weary themselves in vain?
14
For the earth will be filled
With the knowledge of the glory of the
Lord
,
As the waters cover the sea.
15
“Woe to him who gives drink to his neighbor,
Pressing
him to
your bottle,
Even to make
him
drunk,
That you may look on his nakedness!
16
You are filled with shame instead of glory.
You also—drink!
And be exposed as uncircumcised!
The cup of the
Lord
’s right hand
will be
turned against you,
And utter shame will be on your glory.
17
For the violence
done to
Lebanon will cover you,
And the plunder of beasts
which
made them afraid,
Because of men’s blood
And the violence of the land
and
the city,
And of all who dwell in it.
