Habakkuk 2:11-13

Common English Bible

¹¹ A stone will cry out from a village wall,
        and a tree branch will respond.
¹² Pity the one building a city with bloodshed
        and founding a village with injustice.
¹³ Look, isn’t this from the Lord of heavenly forces?
Peoples grow weary from making just enough fire;
        nations become tired for nothing.^[a]
