3A prayer of Habakkuk the prophet. According to Shigionoth.H8605H2265H5030H76922LORD, I have heard the report about You; LORD, I stand in awe of Your deeds. Revive [Your work] in these years; make [it] known in these years. In [Your] wrath remember mercy!H3068H8085H8088H3372H3068H2421H6467H7130H8141H7130H8141H3045H7267H2142H73553God comes from Teman, the Holy One from Mount Paran. Selah His splendor covers the heavens, and the earth is full of His praise.H433H935H8487H6918H2022H6290H5542H1935H3680H8064H776H4390H84164[His] brilliance is like light; rays are flashing from His hand. This is where His power is hidden.H5051H216H7161H3027H2253H57975Plague goes before Him, and pestilence follows in His steps.H6440H3212H1698H7565H3318H72726He stands and shakes the earth; He looks and startles the nations. The age-old mountains break apart; the ancient hills sink down. His pathways are ancient.H5975H4128H776H7200H5425H1471H5703H2042H6327H5769H1389H7817H1979H57697I see the tents of Cushan in distress; the tent curtains of the land of Midian tremble.H7200H168H3572H205H3407H776H4080H72648Are You angry at the rivers, LORD? Is Your wrath against the rivers? Or is Your rage against the sea when You ride on Your horses, Your victorious chariot?H3068H2734H5104H639H5104H5678H3220H7392H5483H4818H34449You took the sheath from Your bow; the arrows are ready to be used with an oath. Selah You split the earth with rivers.H7198H6181H5783H7621H4294H562H5542H1234H776H510410The mountains see You and shudder; a downpour of water sweeps by. The deep roars with its voice and lifts its waves high.H2022H7200H2342H2230H4325H5674H8415H5414H6963H5375H3027H731511Sun and moon stand still in [their] lofty residence, at the flash of Your flying arrows, at the brightness of Your shining spear.H8121H3394H5975H2073H216H2671H1980H5051H1300H259512You march across the earth with indignation; You trample down the nations in wrath.H6805H776H2195H1758H1471H63913You come out to save Your people, to save Your anointed. You crush the leader of the house of the wicked and strip [him] from foot to neck.

Habakkuk’s Confidence in God Expressed
16I heard, and I trembled within; my lips quivered at the sound. Rottenness entered my bones; I trembled where I stood. Now I must quietly wait for the day of distress to come against the people invading us.H8085H990H7264H8193H6750H6963H7538H935H6106H7264H5117H3117H6869H5927H5971H146417Though the fig tree does not bud and there is no fruit on the vines, though the olive crop fails and the fields produce no food, though there are no sheep in the pen and no cattle in the stalls,H8384H6524H2981H1612H4639H2132H3584H7709H6213H400H6629H1504H4356H1241H751718yet I will triumph in the LORD; I will rejoice in the God of my salvation!H5937H3068H1523H430H346819Yahweh my Lord is my strength; He makes my feet like those of a deer and enables me to walk on mountain heights!
