Habakkuk 2:10-12

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

¹⁰You have devised shame for your house
    by cutting off many peoples;
    you have forfeited your life.
¹¹The very stones will cry out from the wall,
    and the plaster^[a] will respond from the woodwork.

¹²“Alas for you who build a town by bloodshed,
and found a city on iniquity!”
