Habakkuk 3:8-15

8Did the Lord rage against the 1rivers, Or was Your anger against the rivers, Or was Your rage against the 2sea, That You 3rode on Your horses, On Your 4chariots of salvation?9You removed Your 5bow from its holder, The arrows of Your word were 6sworn. Selah You 7divided the earth with rivers.10The mountains saw You and quaked; The downpour of waters swept by. The deep 8raised its voice, It lifted high its hands.119Sun and moon stood in their lofty places; They went away at the 10light of Your arrows, At the radiance of Your flashing spear.12In indignation You 11marched through the earth; In anger You 1213trampled the nations.13You went forth for the 14salvation of Your people, For the salvation of Your 15anointed. You smashed the 16head of the house of evil To uncover him from 17foot to neck. Selah14You pierced with his 18own 19arrows The head of his 20leaders. They 21stormed in to scatter 22us; Their arrogance was like those Who 23devour the oppressed in secret.15You 24trampled on the sea with Your horses, On the 25foam of many waters.
