Habakkuk 2:15-16
New Living Translation
15 “What sorrow awaits you who make your neighbors drunk!
You force your cup on them
so you can gloat over their shameful nakedness.
16 But soon it will be your turn to be disgraced.
Come, drink and be exposed![a]
Drink from the cup of the Lord’s judgment,
and all your glory will be turned to shame.
