Habakkuk 2:16

16 But you will become drunk ^{▼▼tn Heb “are filled.” The translation assumes the verbal form is a perfect of certitude, emphasizing the certainty of Babylon’s coming judgment, which will reduce the majestic empire to shame and humiliation.} with shame, not majesty. ^{▼▼tn Or “glory.”}
Now it is your turn to drink and expose your uncircumcised foreskin! ^{▼▼tc Heb “drink, even you, and show the foreskin.” Instead of הֵעָרֵל (heʿarel, “show the foreskin”) one of the Dead Sea scrolls has הֵרָעֵל (heraʿel, “stumble”). This reading also has support from several ancient versions and is followed by the NEB (“you too shall drink until you stagger”) and NRSV (“Drink, you yourself, and stagger”). For a defense of the Hebrew text, see P. D. Miller, Jr., Sin and Judgment in the Prophets, 63-64.}
The cup of wine in the Lord’s right hand ^{▼▼sn The Lord’s right hand represents his military power. He will force the Babylonians to experience the same humiliating defeat they inflicted on others.} is coming to you,
and disgrace will replace your majestic glory!
