Habakkuk 2:3-5
Amplified Bible
3
“For the vision is yet for the appointed [future] time
It hurries toward the goal [of fulfillment]; it will not fail.
Even though it delays, wait [patiently] for it,
Because it will certainly come; it will not delay.(A)
4
“Look at the proud one,
His soul is not right within him,
But the righteous will live by his faith [in the true God].(B)
5
“Moreover, wine is treacherous and betrays the arrogant man,
So that he does not stay at home.
His appetite is large like Sheol,
And he is like death, never satisfied.
He gathers to himself all nations
And collects to himself all peoples [as if he owned them].

Habakkuk 2:3-5
New International Version
3 For the revelation awaits an appointed time;(A)
it speaks of the end(B)
and will not prove false.
Though it linger, wait(C) for it;
it[a] will certainly come
and will not delay.(D)
4 “See, the enemy is puffed up;
his desires are not upright—
but the righteous person(E) will live by his faithfulness[b](F)—
5 indeed, wine(G) betrays him;
he is arrogant(H) and never at rest.
Because he is as greedy as the grave
and like death is never satisfied,(I)
he gathers to himself all the nations
and takes captive(J) all the peoples.
