Habakkuk 2:15 in Context — Habakkuk 2

13 Eis que isto não vem da parte do SENHOR dos exércitos, que os povos trabalham para o fogo, e as nações se cansam em vão?

14 Porque a terra se encherá de conhecimento da glória do SENHOR, como as águas cobrem o mar.

15 Ai daquele que dá bebidas a seu próximo, tu que embebedas com teu furor, para que possas vê-los nus.

16 Tu te encherás de vergonha no lugar de honra; bebe tu também, e descobre o prepúcio; o cálice da mão direita do SENHOR voltará sobre ti, e haverá vergonha sobre a tua glória.

17 Porque a violência cometida contra o Líbano te cobrirá, e a destruição dos animais selvagens o assombrará; por causa dos sangues das pessoas, e da violência contra a terra, as cidades, e todos os seus moradores.
