Habakkuk 2:15-17
New Life Version
15 “It is bad for him who makes his neighbors drink, mixing in his poison to make them drunk, so he can look on their shame! 16 You will be filled with shame instead of honor. Now you yourself drink and let your own shame be seen. The cup in the Lord’s right hand will come around to you, and your greatness will turn to shame. 17 The bad things you have done to Lebanon will come back to you. Because you have killed its animals, now they will make you afraid. This will happen because of all the killing you have done. You have destroyed lands and cities and everyone in them.

Habakkuk 2:15-17
New International Version
15 “Woe to him who gives drink(A) to his neighbors,
pouring it from the wineskin till they are drunk,
so that he can gaze on their naked bodies!
16 You will be filled with shame(B) instead of glory.(C)
Now it is your turn! Drink(D) and let your nakedness be exposed[a]!(E)
The cup(F) from the Lord’s right hand is coming around to you,
and disgrace will cover your glory.
17 The violence(G) you have done to Lebanon will overwhelm you,
and your destruction of animals will terrify you.(H)
For you have shed human blood;(I)
you have destroyed lands and cities and everyone in them.
