Habakkuk 2:3-5
Lexham English Bible
3 For there is yet a vision for the appointed time;
it will give witness to the end, and it will not lie.
If it tarries, wait for it,
for it will surely come and not delay.
4 Look! His spirit within him is puffed up;
it is not upright.
But the righteous shall live by his faithfulness.
5 How much less[a] the defiant;[b]
the arrogant, treacherous man?
He who broadens his throat like Sheol,
and who, like death, is not satisfied,
and who gathers to himself all the nations,
and harvested for himself all the peoples,
will not succeed.

Habacuc 2:3-5
Louis Segond
3 Car c'est une prophétie dont le temps est déjà fixé, Elle marche vers son terme, et elle ne mentira pas; Si elle tarde, attends-la, Car elle s'accomplira, elle s'accomplira certainement.
4 Voici, son âme s'est enflée, elle n'est pas droite en lui; Mais le juste vivra par sa foi.
5 Pareil à celui qui est ivre et arrogant, L'orgueilleux ne demeure pas tranquille; Il élargit sa bouche comme le séjour des morts, Il est insatiable comme la mort; Il attire à lui toutes les nations, Il assemble auprès de lui tous les peuples.
