Habakkuk 2:7-9
Names of God Bible

7 Won’t your creditors suddenly rise up
    and those who are going to shake you wake up?
        Then you will become their prize.
8 You have looted many nations.
    All the rest of the people will loot you
        because of the slaughter and violence done
            to lands, cities, and all their inhabitants.

9 “‘How horrible it will be for the one who uses violence
    to get things for his own household
        in order to set his nest up high
            and save himself from disaster.’
