Habakkuk 1:16King James 3 - The Literal TraslationOn account of this he sacrifices to his net, and burns incense to his fishnet; because by them his portion grows fat, and his food rich. See the chapter |
But doing we will do whatever thing goes out of our own mouth, to burn incense to the queen of the heavens, and to pour out drink offerings to her, as we have done, we and our fathers, our kings, and our rulers, in the cities of Judah and in the outside places of Jerusalem. And we were satisfied with food, and were well, and saw no evil thing.
But you have exalted yourself against the Lord of Heaven. And they have brought the vessels of His house before you. And you, and your nobles, your wives, and your concubines have drunk wine with them. And you have praised the gods of silver, and gold, bronze, iron, wood, and stone, which do not see, nor hear, and do not know. And you have not glorified the God in whose hand is your life-breath and all your ways.
