Habakkuk 2:14-20
English Standard Version
14 (A)For the earth will be filled
with the knowledge of (B)the glory of the Lord
as the waters cover the sea.
15 (C)“Woe to him (D)who makes his neighbors drink—
you pour out your wrath and make them drunk,
in order to gaze (E)at their nakedness!
16 You will have your fill (F)of shame instead of glory.
(G)Drink, yourself, and show your uncircumcision!
(H)The cup in the Lord's right hand
will come around to you,
and (I)utter shame will come upon your glory!
17 (J)The violence (K)done to Lebanon will overwhelm you,
as will the destruction of the beasts that terrified them,
(L)for the blood of man and violence to the earth,
to cities and all who dwell in them.
18 (M)“What profit is an idol
when its maker has shaped it,
a metal image, (N)a teacher of lies?
For its maker trusts in his own creation
when he makes (O)speechless idols!
19 (P)Woe to him (Q)who says to a wooden thing, Awake;
to a silent stone, Arise!
Can this teach?
Behold, it is overlaid with gold and silver,
and (R)there is no breath at all in it.
20 But (S)the Lord is in his holy temple;
(T)let all the earth keep silence before him.”
