Thou hast consulted shame to thy house by cutting off many people, and hast sinned against thy soul.

Verse 10 is found in chapter 2 of Habakkuk. Building a house with unjust gain reveals the oppressor’s false security. Habakkuk shows that wealth obtained at the expense of others does not produce a truly secure dwelling, because even the stones of the house seem to testify against its owner.

Aber dein Ratschlag wird zur Schande deines Hauses geraten; denn du hast zu viele Völker zerschlagen und hast mit allem Mutwillen gesündigt.
Tomaste consejo vergonzoso para tu casa, asolaste muchos pueblos, y has pecado contra tu vida.
Has tramado la vergüenza de tu casa; al exterminar a muchos pueblos, has pecado contra tu propia vida.
C'est l'opprobre de ta maison que tu as résolu, En détruisant des peuples nombreux, Et c'est contre toi-même que tu as péché.
Tu hai preso un consiglio che sarà di confusione alla tua casa: di tagliare a pezzi molti popoli; ed hai peccato contro all’anima tua.
Vergonha maquinaste para a tua casa; destruindo tu a muitos povos, pecaste contra a tua alma.
你圖謀剪除許多民族,犯了罪, 使自己的家蒙羞,自害己命。
