Habakkuk 3:2-16

2Lord, I have 1heard 2the report about You, and 3I was 4afraid. Lord, 5revive 6Your work in the midst of the years, In the midst of the years make it known. In anger remember 78mercy.

3God comes from 9Teman, And the Holy One from Mount 10Paran. Selah His 11splendor covers the heavens, And the 12earth is full of His praise.4His 13radiance is like the sunlight; He has rays flashing from His hand, And the hiding of His 14might is there.5Before Him goes 15plague, And 16plague comes forth 17after Him.6He stood and caused the earth to shudder; He looked and 18caused the nations to jump. Yes, the everlasting mountains were shattered, The ancient hills 19collapsed. His paths are 20everlasting.7I saw the tents of Cushan under 21distress, The tent curtains of the land of 22Midian were trembling.

8Did the Lord rage against the 23rivers, Or was Your anger against the rivers, Or was Your rage against the 24sea, That You 25rode on Your horses, On Your 26chariots of salvation?9You removed Your 27bow from its holder, The arrows of Your word were 28sworn. Selah You 29divided the earth with rivers.10The mountains saw You and quaked; The downpour of waters swept by. The deep 30raised its voice, It lifted high its hands.1131Sun and moon stood in their lofty places; They went away at the 32light of Your arrows, At the radiance of Your flashing spear.12In indignation You 33marched through the earth; In anger You 3435trampled the nations.13You went forth for the 36salvation of Your people, For the salvation of Your 37anointed. You smashed the 38head of the house of evil To uncover him from 39foot to neck. Selah14You pierced with his 40own 41arrows The head of his 42leaders. They 43stormed in to scatter 44us; Their arrogance was like those Who 45devour the oppressed in secret.15You 46trampled on the sea with Your horses, On the 47foam of many waters.

16I heard, and my 48inner parts 49trembled; At the sound, my lips quivered. Decay enters my 50bones, And in my place I tremble; Because I 51must 52wait quietly for the day of distress, 53For the 54people to arise who will attack us.
