Revelation 18:5-8
New International Version
5 for her sins are piled up to heaven,(A)
and God has remembered(B) her crimes.
6 Give back to her as she has given;
pay her back(C) double(D) for what she has done.
Pour her a double portion from her own cup.(E)
7 Give her as much torment and grief
as the glory and luxury she gave herself.(F)
In her heart she boasts,
‘I sit enthroned as queen.
I am not a widow;[a]
I will never mourn.’(G)
8 Therefore in one day(H) her plagues will overtake her:
death, mourning and famine.
She will be consumed by fire,(I)
for mighty is the Lord God who judges her.

8 Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judgeth her.

Habakkuk 2:6-12
New International Version
6 “Will not all of them taunt(A) him with ridicule and scorn, saying,
“‘Woe to him who piles up stolen goods
and makes himself wealthy by extortion!(B)
How long must this go on?’
7 Will not your creditors suddenly arise?
Will they not wake up and make you tremble?
Then you will become their prey.(C)
8 Because you have plundered many nations,
the peoples who are left will plunder you.(D)
For you have shed human blood;(E)
you have destroyed lands and cities and everyone in them.(F)
9 “Woe to him who builds(G) his house by unjust gain,(H)
setting his nest(I) on high
to escape the clutches of ruin!
10 You have plotted the ruin(J) of many peoples,
shaming(K) your own house and forfeiting your life.
11 The stones(L) of the wall will cry out,
and the beams of the woodwork will echo it.
12 “Woe to him who builds a city with bloodshed(M)
and establishes a town by injustice!

6 Shall not all these take up a parable against him, and a taunting proverb against him, and say, Woe to him that increaseth that which is not his! how long? and to him that ladeth himself with thick clay!
7 Shall they not rise up suddenly that shall bite thee, and awake that shall vex thee, and thou shalt be for booties unto them?
8 Because thou hast spoiled many nations, all the remnant of the people shall spoil thee; because of men's blood, and for the violence of the land, of the city, and of all that dwell therein.
9 Woe to him that coveteth an evil covetousness to his house, that he may set his nest on high, that he may be delivered from the power of evil!
10 Thou hast consulted shame to thy house by cutting off many people, and hast sinned against thy soul.
11 For the stone shall cry out of the wall, and the beam out of the timber shall answer it.
12 Woe to him that buildeth a town with blood, and stablisheth a city by iniquity!

Habakkuk 1:2-10
New International Version
Habakkuk’s Complaint
2 How long,(A) Lord, must I call for help,
but you do not listen?(B)
Or cry out to you, “Violence!”
but you do not save?(C)
3 Why do you make me look at injustice?
Why do you tolerate(D) wrongdoing?(E)
Destruction and violence(F) are before me;
there is strife,(G) and conflict abounds.
4 Therefore the law(H) is paralyzed,
and justice never prevails.
The wicked hem in the righteous,
so that justice(I) is perverted.(J)
The Lord’s Answer
5 “Look at the nations and watch—
and be utterly amazed.(K)
For I am going to do something in your days
that you would not believe,
even if you were told.(L)
6 I am raising up the Babylonians,[a](M)
that ruthless and impetuous people,
who sweep across the whole earth(N)
to seize dwellings not their own.(O)
7 They are a feared and dreaded people;(P)
they are a law to themselves
and promote their own honor.
8 Their horses are swifter(Q) than leopards,
fiercer than wolves(R) at dusk.
Their cavalry gallops headlong;
their horsemen come from afar.
They fly like an eagle swooping to devour;
9 they all come intent on violence.
Their hordes[b] advance like a desert wind
and gather prisoners(S) like sand.
10 They mock kings
and scoff at rulers.(T)
They laugh at all fortified cities;
by building earthen ramps(U) they capture them.

Habakkuk 1:2-10
King James Version
2 O Lord, how long shall I cry, and thou wilt not hear! even cry out unto thee of violence, and thou wilt not save!
3 Why dost thou shew me iniquity, and cause me to behold grievance? for spoiling and violence are before me: and there are that raise up strife and contention.
4 Therefore the law is slacked, and judgment doth never go forth: for the wicked doth compass about the righteous; therefore wrong judgment proceedeth.
5 Behold ye among the heathen, and regard, and wonder marvelously: for I will work a work in your days which ye will not believe, though it be told you.
6 For, lo, I raise up the Chaldeans, that bitter and hasty nation, which shall march through the breadth of the land, to possess the dwellingplaces that are not their's.
7 They are terrible and dreadful: their judgment and their dignity shall proceed of themselves.
8 Their horses also are swifter than the leopards, and are more fierce than the evening wolves: and their horsemen shall spread themselves, and their horsemen shall come from far; they shall fly as the eagle that hasteth to eat.
9 They shall come all for violence: their faces shall sup up as the east wind, and they shall gather the captivity as the sand.
10 And they shall scoff at the kings, and the princes shall be a scorn unto them: they shall deride every strong hold; for they shall heap dust, and take it.

Daniel 7:19-25
New International Version
19 “Then I wanted to know the meaning of the fourth beast, which was different from all the others and most terrifying, with its iron teeth and bronze claws—the beast that crushed and devoured its victims and trampled underfoot whatever was left. 20 I also wanted to know about the ten horns(A) on its head and about the other horn that came up, before which three of them fell—the horn that looked more imposing than the others and that had eyes and a mouth that spoke boastfully.(B) 21 As I watched, this horn was waging war against the holy people and defeating them,(C) 22 until the Ancient of Days came and pronounced judgment in favor of the holy people of the Most High, and the time came when they possessed the kingdom.(D)
23 “He gave me this explanation: ‘The fourth beast is a fourth kingdom that will appear on earth. It will be different from all the other kingdoms and will devour the whole earth, trampling it down and crushing it.(E) 24 The ten horns(F) are ten kings who will come from this kingdom. After them another king will arise, different from the earlier ones; he will subdue three kings. 25 He will speak against the Most High(G) and oppress his holy people(H) and try to change the set times(I) and the laws. The holy people will be delivered into his hands for a time, times and half a time.[a](J)

19 Then I would know the truth of the fourth beast, which was diverse from all the others, exceeding dreadful, whose teeth were of iron, and his nails of brass; which devoured, brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with his feet;
20 And of the ten horns that were in his head, and of the other which came up, and before whom three fell; even of that horn that had eyes, and a mouth that spake very great things, whose look was more stout than his fellows.
21 I beheld, and the same horn made war with the saints, and prevailed against them;
22 Until the Ancient of days came, and judgment was given to the saints of the most High; and the time came that the saints possessed the kingdom.
23 Thus he said, The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth, which shall be diverse from all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces.
24 And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise: and another shall rise after them; and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings.
25 And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.
