Habakkuk 2:6 in English
Habakkuk 2:6 · Berean Standard Bible
Will not all of these take up a taunt against him, speaking with mockery and derision: ‘Woe to him who amasses what is not his and makes himself rich with many loans! How long will this go on?’
Context
4“Tazama, amejaa majivuno;
anavyovitamani si vya unyofu:
lakini mwenye haki ataishi kwa imani yake: 5hakika mvinyo humsaliti;
ni mwenye kiburi na hana amani.
Kwa sababu ni mlafi kama kuzimu
na kama kifo kamwe hatosheki;
anajikusanyia mataifa yote
na kuchukua watu wote mateka. 6“Je, watu wote hawatamsuta kwa dhihaka na kumbeza, wakisema,
“ ‘Ole wake yeye akusanyaye bidhaa zilizoibwa
na kujifanyia utajiri kwa kutoza kwa nguvu!
Ataendelea hivi kwa muda gani?’ 7Je, wadai wako hawatainuka ghafula?
Je, hawataamka na kukufanya utetemeke?
Kisha utakuwa mhanga kwao. 8Kwa kuwa umeteka nyara mataifa mengi,
watu waliobaki watakuteka nyara wewe.
Kwa kuwa umemwaga damu ya mtu;
umeharibu nchi na miji, na kila mmoja ndani yake.
