Habakkuk 2:4-6

Habakkuk 2:4-6
Tree of Life Version
Trust, Judgment and Glory
4 Behold, the puffed up one—
his soul is not right within him,
But the righteous will live by his trust.[a]
5 Indeed, because this wine betrays,
a proud man never rests.
He enlarges his desire like Sheol,
Like death, he is never satisfied.
So he gathers to himself all nations,
and collects all peoples for himself.
6 Will not all take up a proverb against him or a scornful riddle about him?
“Oy to one expanding what isn’t his!
How long?
Oy to one burdening himself with heavy debts!”
