(Hab 3:1) A prayer of Habakkuk the prophet upon Shigionoth.
(Hab 3:2) O Lord, I have heard thy speech, {and} was afraid: O Lord, revive thy work in the midst of the years, in the midst of the years make known; in wrath remember mercy.
(Hab 3:3) God came from Teman, and the Holy One from mount Paran. Selah. His glory covered the heavens, and the earth was full of his praise.
(Hab 3:4) And {his} brightness was as the light; he had horns {coming} out of his hand: and there {was} the hiding of his power.
(Hab 3:5) Before him went the pestilence, and burning coals went forth at his feet.
(Hab 3:6) He stood, and measured the earth: he beheld, and drove asunder the nations; and the everlasting mountains were scattered, the perpetual hills did bow: his ways {are} everlasting.
(Hab 3:7) I saw the tents of Cushan in affliction: {and} the curtains of the land of Midian did tremble.
(Hab 3:8) Was the Lord displeased against the rivers? {was} thine anger against the rivers? {was} thy wrath against the sea, that thou didst ride upon thine horses {and} thy chariots of salvation?
(Hab 3:9) Thy bow was made quite naked, {according} to the oaths of the tribes, {even thy} word. Selah. Thou didst cleave the earth with rivers.
(Hab 3:10) The mountains saw thee, {and} they trembled: the overflowing of the water passed by: the deep uttered his voice, {and} lifted up his hands on high.
(Hab 3:11) The sun {and} moon stood still in their habitation: at the light of thine arrows they went, {and} at the shining of thy glittering spear.
(Hab 3:12) Thou didst march through the land in indignation, thou didst thresh the heathen in anger.
(Hab 3:13) Thou wentest forth for the salvation of thy people, {even} for salvation with thine anointed; thou woundedst the head out of the house of the wicked, by discovering the foundation unto the neck. Selah.
(Hab 3:14) Thou didst strike through with his staves the head of his villages: they came out as a whirlwind to scatter me: their rejoicing {was} as to devour the poor secretly.
(Hab 3:15) Thou didst walk through the sea with thine horses, {through} the heap of great waters.
(Hab 3:16) When I heard, my belly trembled; my lips quivered at the voice: rottenness entered into my bones, and I trembled in myself, that I might rest in the day of trouble: when he cometh up unto the people, he will invade them with his troops.
(Hab 3:17) Although the fig tree shall not blossom, neither {shall} fruit {be} in the vines; the labour of the olive shall fail, and the fields shall yield no meat; the flock shall be cut off from the fold, and {there shall be} no herd in the stalls:
(Hab 3:18) Yet I will rejoice in the Lord, I will joy in the God of my salvation.
(Hab 3:19) The Lord God {is} my strength, and he will make my feet like hinds' {feet}, and he will make me to walk upon mine high places. To the chief singer on my stringed instruments.
