Habakkuk 2:12-14

Modern English Version

¹² “Woe to him who builds a town with bloodshed
    and establishes a city on iniquity!”
¹³ Is it not from the Lord of Hosts
    that the people labor to feed fire,
    and the nations weary themselves for nothing?
¹⁴ For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord,
    as the waters cover the seas.
