Habakkuk 2:15-17

Woe to the Chaldeans

¹⁵ _t "Woe to him _i who makes his neighbors drink -
you pour out your wrath and make them drunk,
in order to gaze _j at their nakedness!
¹⁶ You will have your fill _k of shame instead of glory.
_l Drink, yourself, and show your uncircumcision!
_l The cup in the Lord's right hand
will come around to you,
and _m utter shame will come upon your glory!
¹⁷ _n The violence _o done to Lebanon will overwhelm you,
as will the destruction of the beasts that terrified them,
_n for the blood of man and violence to the earth,
to cities and all who dwell in them.
