Habakkuk 2:14 Context
12¶ Woe to him that buildeth a towne with blood, and stablisheth a citie by iniquitie. 13Behold, is it not of the Lord of hostes, that the people shall labour in the very fire, and the people shal wearie themselues for very vanitie? 14For the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord, as the waters couer the Sea. 15¶ Woe vnto him that giueth his neighbour drinke: that puttest thy bottell to him, and makest him drunken also; that thou mayest looke on their nakednesse. 16Thou art filled with shame for glory: drinke thou also, and let thy foreskin bee vncouered: the cup of the Lords right hand shall be turned vnto thee, and shamefull spewing shalbe on thy glory.
