Habakkuk 2 (kjv)

I will stand^H5975 upon my watch^H4931, and set^H3320 me upon the tower^H4692, and will watch^H6822 to see^H7200 what he will say^H1696 unto me, and what I shall answer^H7725 when I am reproved^H8433.²And the LORD^H3068 answered^H6030 me, and said^H559, Write^H3789 the vision^H2377, and make it plain^H874 upon tables^H3871, that he may run^H7323 that readeth^H7121 it.³For the vision^H2377 is yet for an appointed time^H4150, but at the end^H7093 it shall speak^H6315, and not lie^H3576: though it tarry^H4102, wait^H2442 for it; because it will surely^H935 come^H935, it will not tarry^H309.⁴Behold, his soul^H5315 which is lifted up^H6075 is not upright^H3474 in him: but the just^H6662 shall live^H2421 by his faith^H530.⁵Yea also, because he transgresseth^H898 by wine^H3196, he is a proud^H3093 man^H1397, neither keepeth at home^H5115, who enlargeth^H7337 his desire^H5315 as hell^H7585, and is as death^H4194, and cannot be satisfied^H7646, but gathereth^H622 unto him all nations^H1471, and heapeth^H6908 unto him all people^H5971:⁶Shall not all these take up^H5375 a parable^H4912 against him, and a taunting^H4426 proverb^H2420 against him, and say^H559, Woe^H1945 to him that increaseth^H7235 that which is not his! how long? and to him that ladeth^H3513 himself with thick clay^H5671!⁷Shall they not rise up^H6965 suddenly^H6621 that shall bite^H5391 thee, and awake^H3364 that shall vex^H2111 thee, and thou shalt be for booties^H4933 unto them?⁸Because thou hast spoiled^H7997 many^H7227 nations^H1471, all the remnant^H3499 of the people^H5971 shall spoil^H7997 thee; because of men's^H120 blood^H1818, and for the violence^H2555 of the land^H776, of the city^H7151, and of all that dwell^H3427 therein.⁹Woe^H1945 to him that coveteth^H1214 an evil^H7451 covetousness^H1215 to his house^H1004, that he may set^H7760 his nest^H7064 on high^H4791, that he may be delivered^H5337 from the power^H3709 of evil^H7451!¹⁰Thou hast consulted^H3289 shame^H1322 to thy house^H1004 by cutting off^H7096 many^H7227 people^H5971, and hast sinned^H2398 against thy soul^H5315.¹¹For the stone^H68 shall cry out^H2199 of the wall^H7023, and the beam out^H3714 of the timber^H6086 shall answer^H6030 it.¹²Woe^H1945 to him that buildeth^H1129 a town^H5892 with blood^H1818, and stablisheth^H3559 a city^H7151 by iniquity^H5766!¹³Behold, is it not of the LORD^H3068 of hosts^H6635 that the people^H5971 shall labour^H3021 in the very^H1767 fire^H784, and the people^H3816 shall weary^H3286 themselves for very^H1767 vanity^H7385?¹⁴For the earth^H776 shall be filled^H4390 with the knowledge^H3045 of the glory^H3519 of the LORD^H3068, as the waters^H4325 cover^H3680 the sea^H3220.¹⁵Woe^H1945 unto him that giveth his neighbour^H7453 drink^H8248, that puttest^H5596 thy bottle^H2573 to him, and makest him drunken^H7937 also, that thou mayest look^H5027 on their nakedness^H4589!¹⁶Thou art filled^H7646 with shame^H7036 for glory^H3519: drink^H8354 thou also, and let thy foreskin be uncovered^H6188: the cup^H3563 of the LORD'S^H3068 right hand^H3225 shall be turned^H5437 unto thee, and shameful spewing^H7022 shall be on thy glory^H3519.¹⁷For the violence^H2555 of Lebanon^H3844 shall cover^H3680 thee, and the spoil^H7701 of beasts^H929, which made them afraid^H2865, because of men's^H120 blood^H1818, and for the violence^H2555 of the land^H776, of the city^H7151, and of all that dwell^H3427 therein.¹⁸What profiteth^H3276 the graven image^H6459 that the maker^H3335 thereof hath graven^H6458 it; the molten image^H4541, and a teacher^H3384 of lies^H8267, that the maker^H3335 of his work^H3336 trusteth^H982 therein, to make^H6213 dumb^H483 idols^H457?¹⁹Woe^H1945 unto him that saith^H559 to the wood^H6086, Awake^H6974; to the dumb^H1748 stone^H68, Arise^H5782, it shall teach^H3384 ! Behold, it is laid^H8610 over with gold^H2091 and silver^H3701, and there is no breath^H7307 at all in the midst^H7130 of it.²⁰But the LORD^H3068 is in his holy^H6944 temple^H1964: let all the earth^H776 keep silence^H2013 before^H6440 him.
