Habakkuk 2:9-11
International Children’s Bible
9 “How terrible it will be for the nation that becomes rich by doing wrong.
They do those things to live in a safe place.
They think they will be safe from harm.
10 You have made plans to destroy many people.
This has made your own houses ashamed of you.
Because of it, you will lose your lives.
11 The stones of the walls will cry out against you.
Even the wooden boards that support the roof will agree that you are wrong.

9 “Woe to him who builds(A) his house by unjust gain,(B)
setting his nest(C) on high
to escape the clutches of ruin!
10 You have plotted the ruin(D) of many peoples,
shaming(E) your own house and forfeiting your life.
11 The stones(F) of the wall will cry out,
and the beams of the woodwork will echo it.
