Habakkuk 2:13-15
International Standard Version
13 Is it not because of the Lord of the Heavenly Armies
that people grow tired putting out fires,[a]
and nations weary themselves over nothing?
14 Indeed, the earth will be filled
with knowledge of the glory of the Lord,
as water fills[b] the sea.”

15 “Woe to the one who supplies his neighbor with a drink!
You are forcing your bottle[c] on him,[d]
making him drunk so you can see them naked.
