Habakkuk 2:9-12 Devotionals, Articles & Bible Study

⁹Woe to him who builds his house

by unjust gain,

to place his nest on high

and escape the hand of disaster!

¹⁰You have plotted shame for your house

by cutting off many peoples

and forfeiting your life.

¹¹For the stones will cry out from the wall,

and the rafters will echo it from the woodwork.

¹²Woe to him who builds a city with bloodshed

and establishes a town by iniquity!
