Habakkuk 2:3-5
Lexham English Bible
3 For there is yet a vision for the appointed time;
it will give witness to the end, and it will not lie.
If it tarries, wait for it,
for it will surely come and not delay.
4 Look! His spirit within him is puffed up;
it is not upright.
But the righteous shall live by his faithfulness.
5 How much less[a] the defiant;[b]
the arrogant, treacherous man?
He who broadens his throat like Sheol,
and who, like death, is not satisfied,
and who gathers to himself all the nations,
and harvested for himself all the peoples,
will not succeed.

3 perché è una visione per un tempo già fissato. Essa si affretta verso il suo termine e non mentirà; se tarda, aspettala, poiché certamente verrà, e non tarderà».
4 Ecco, egli si è inorgoglito, non agisce rettamente; ma il giusto per la sua fede vivrà[a].
Cause del giudizio contro l’oppressore
5 (A)«Certo, il vino è traditore; l’uomo arrogante non può starsene tranquillo, egli allarga la sua bocca come il soggiorno dei morti; come la morte, non si può saziare, ma raduna presso di sé tutte le nazioni, raccoglie intorno a sé tutti i popoli.

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.
