Habakkuk 2

The Latin Vulgate VUL

1 super custodiam meam stabo et figam gradum super munitionem et contemplabor ut videam quid dicatur mihi et quid respondeam ad arguentem me

2 et respondit mihi Dominus et dixit scribe visum et explana eum super tabulas ut percurrat qui legerit eum

3 quia adhuc visus procul et apparebit in finem et non mentietur si moram fecerit expecta illum quia veniens veniet et non tardabit

4 ecce qui incredulus est non erit recta anima eius in semet ipso iustus autem in fide sua vivet

5 et quomodo vinum potantem decipit sic erit vir superbus et non decorabitur qui dilatavit quasi infernus animam suam et ipse quasi mors et non adimpletur et congregabit ad se omnes gentes et coacervabit ad se omnes populos

6 numquid non omnes isti super eum parabolam sument et loquellam enigmatum eius et dicetur vae ei qui multiplicat non sua usquequo et adgravat contra se densum lutum

7 numquid non repente consurgent qui mordeant te et suscitabuntur lacerantes te et eris in rapinam eis

8 quia tu spoliasti gentes multas spoliabunt te omnes qui reliqui fuerint de populis propter sanguinem hominis et iniquitatem terrae civitatis et omnium habitantium in ea

9 vae qui congregat avaritiam malam domui suae ut sit in excelso nidus eius et liberari se putat de manu mali

10 cogitasti confusionem domui tuae concidisti populos multos et peccavit anima tua

11 quia lapis de pariete clamabit et lignum quod inter iuncturas aedificiorum est respondebit

12 vae qui aedificat civitatem in sanguinibus et praeparat urbem in iniquitate

13 numquid non haec a Domino sunt exercituum laborabunt enim populi in multo igni et gentes in vacuum et deficient

14 quia replebitur terra ut cognoscat gloriam Domini quasi aquae operientes mare

15 vae qui potum dat amico suo mittens fel suum et inebrians ut aspiciat nuditatem eius

16 repletus est ignominia pro gloria bibe tu quoque et consopire circumdabit te calix dexterae Domini et vomitus ignominiae super gloriam tuam

17 quia iniquitas Libani operiet te et vastitas animalium deterrebit eos de sanguinibus hominis et iniquitate terrae et civitatis et omnium habitantium in ea

18 quid prodest sculptile quia sculpsit illud fictor suus conflatile et imaginem falsam quia speravit in figmento fictor eius ut faceret simulacra muta

19 vae qui dicit ligno expergiscere surge lapidi tacenti numquid ipse docere poterit ecce iste coopertus est auro et argento et omnis spiritus non est in visceribus eius

20 Dominus autem in templo sancto suo sileat a facie eius omnis terra

New King James Version NKJV

1 I will stand my watch And set myself on the rampart, And watch to see what He will say to me, And what I will answer when I am corrected.

2 Then the Lord answered me and said: "Write the vision And make it plain on tablets, That he may run who reads it.

3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time; But at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, It will not tarry.

4 "Behold the proud, His soul is not upright in him; But the just shall live by his faith.

5 "Indeed, because he transgresses by wine, He is a proud man, And he does not stay at home. Because he enlarges his desire as hell, And he is like death, and cannot be satisfied, He gathers to himself all nations And heaps up for himself all peoples.

6 "Will not all these take up a proverb against him, And a taunting riddle against him, and say, 'Woe to him who increases What is not his--how long? And to him who loads himself with many pledges'?

7 Will not your creditors rise up suddenly? Will they not awaken who oppress you? And you will become their booty.

8 Because you have plundered many nations, All the remnant of the people shall plunder you, Because of men's blood And the violence of the land and the city, And of all who dwell in it.

9 "Woe to him who covets evil gain for his house, That he may set his nest on high, That he may be delivered from the power of disaster!

10 You give shameful counsel to your house, Cutting off many peoples, And sin against your soul.

11 For the stone will cry out from the wall, And the beam from the timbers will answer it.

12 "Woe to him who builds a town with bloodshed, Who establishes a city by iniquity!

13 Behold, is it not of the Lord of hosts That the peoples labor to feed the fire, And nations weary themselves in vain?

14 For the earth will be filled With the knowledge of the glory of the Lord, As the waters cover the sea.

15 "Woe to him who gives drink to his neighbor, Pressing him to your bottle, Even to make him drunk, That you may look on his nakedness!

16 You are filled with shame instead of glory. You also--drink! And be exposed as uncircumcised! The cup of the Lord's right hand will be turned against you, And utter shame will be on your glory.

17 For the violence done to Lebanon will cover you, And the plunder of beasts which made them afraid, Because of men's blood And the violence of the land and the city, And of all who dwell in it.

18 "What profit is the image, that its maker should carve it, The molded image, a teacher of lies, That the maker of its mold should trust in it, To make mute idols?

19 Woe to him who says to wood, 'Awake!' To silent stone, 'Arise! It shall teach!' Behold, it is overlaid with gold and silver, Yet in it there is no breath at all.

20 But the Lord is in His holy temple. Let all the earth keep silence before Him."
