Habakkuk 2:9-12
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 2
9
'Woe to him who makes evil profit for his household,
To put his nest on high,
To be saved from the hand of catastrophe!
10
You have planned a shameful thing for your house
By bringing many peoples to an end;
So you are sinning against yourself.
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!
King James Version
Chapter 2
9
Woe to him that coveteth an evil covetousness to his house, that he may set his nest on high, that he may be delivered from the power of evil!
10
Thou hast consulted shame to thy house by cutting off many people, and hast sinned against thy soul.
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!
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 2
9
Woe to him who dishonestly makes
wealth for his house
to place his nest on high,
to escape the grasp of disaster!
10
You have planned shame for your house
by wiping out many peoples
and sinning against your own self.
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!
New Living Translation
Chapter 2
9
'What sorrow awaits you who build big houses
with money gained dishonestly!
You believe your wealth will buy security,
putting your family’s nest beyond the reach of danger.
10
But by the murders you committed,
you have shamed your name and forfeited your lives.
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!
English Standard Version
Chapter 2
9
"Woe to him who gets evil gain for his house,
to set his nest on high,
to be safe from the reach of harm!
10
You have devised shame for your house
by cutting off many peoples;
you have forfeited your life.
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!
New International Version
Chapter 2
9
"Woe to him who builds his house by unjust gain,
setting his nest on high
to escape the clutches of ruin!
10
You have plotted the ruin of many peoples,
shaming your own house and forfeiting your life.
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!
New King James Version
Chapter 2
9
“Woe to him who covets evil gain for his house,
That he may set his nest on high,
That he may be delivered from the power of disaster!
10
You give shameful counsel to your house,
Cutting off many peoples,
And sin
against
your soul.
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!
