Charles Ellicott Commentary Habakkuk 2:9-11

"Woe to him that getteth an evil gain for his house, that he may set his nest on high, that he may be delivered from the hand of evil! Thou hast devised shame to thy house, by cutting off many peoples, and hast sinned against thy soul. For the stone shall cry out of the wall, and the beam out of the timber shall answer it." — Habakkuk 2:9-11 (ASV)

Woe on the aggrandisement of the new dynasty by force and cunning.
