Habakkuk 2:15-17
English Standard Version
15 (A)“Woe to him (B)who makes his neighbors drink—
you pour out your wrath and make them drunk,
in order to gaze (C)at their nakedness!
16 You will have your fill (D)of shame instead of glory.
(E)Drink, yourself, and show your uncircumcision!
(F)The cup in the Lord's right hand
will come around to you,
and (G)utter shame will come upon your glory!
17 (H)The violence (I)done to Lebanon will overwhelm you,
as will the destruction of the beasts that terrified them,
(J)for the blood of man and violence to the earth,
to cities and all who dwell in them.

Habakkuk 2:15-17
New International Version
15 “Woe to him who gives drink(A) to his neighbors,
pouring it from the wineskin till they are drunk,
so that he can gaze on their naked bodies!
16 You will be filled with shame(B) instead of glory.(C)
Now it is your turn! Drink(D) and let your nakedness be exposed[a]!(E)
The cup(F) from the Lord’s right hand is coming around to you,
and disgrace will cover your glory.
17 The violence(G) you have done to Lebanon will overwhelm you,
and your destruction of animals will terrify you.(H)
For you have shed human blood;(I)
you have destroyed lands and cities and everyone in them.
