3A prayer of Habakkuk the prophet, on Shigionoth.H8605H2265H5030H76922O LORD, I have heard your speech and was afraid; O LORD, revive Your work in the midst of the years! In the midst of the years make it known; In wrath remember mercy.H3068H8085H8088H3372H3068H2421H6467H7130H8141H7130H8141H3045H7267H2142H73553God came from Teman, The Holy One from Mount Paran. Selah His glory covered the heavens, And the earth was full of His praise.H433H935H8487H6918H2022H6290H5542H1935H3680H8064H776H4390H84164His brightness was like the light; He had rays flashing from His hand, And there His power was hidden.H5051H216H7161H3027H2253H57975Before Him went pestilence, And fever followed at His feet.H6440H3212H1698H7565H3318H72726He stood and measured the earth; He looked and startled the nations. And the everlasting mountains were scattered, The perpetual hills bowed. His ways are everlasting.H5975H4128H776H7200H5425H1471H5703H2042H6327H5769H1389H7817H1979H57697I saw the tents of Cushan in affliction; The curtains of the land of Midian trembled.H7200H168H3572H205H3407H776H4080H72648O LORD, were You displeased with the rivers, Was Your anger against the rivers, Was Your wrath against the sea, That You rode on Your horses, Your chariots of salvation?H3068H2734H5104H639H5104H5678H3220H7392H5483H4818H34449Your bow was made quite ready; Oaths were sworn over Your arrows. Selah You divided the earth with rivers.H7198H6181H5783H7621H4294H562H5542H1234H776H510410The mountains saw You and trembled; The overflowing of the water passed by. The deep uttered its voice, And lifted its hands on high.H2022H7200H2342H2230H4325H5674H8415H5414H6963H5375H3027H731511The sun and moon stood still in their habitation; At the light of Your arrows they went, At the shining of Your glittering spear.H8121H3394H5975H2073H216H2671H1980H5051H1300H259512You marched through the land in indignation; You trampled the nations in anger.H6805H776H2195H1758H1471H63913You went forth for the salvation of Your people, For salvation with Your Anointed. You struck the head from the house of the wicked, By laying bare from foundation to neck. SelahH3318H3468H5971H3468H4899H4272H7218H1004H7563H6168H3247H6677H554214You thrust through with his own arrows The head of his villages. They came out like a whirlwind to scatter me; Their rejoicing was like feasting on the poor in secret.H5344H4294H7218H6518H5590H6327H5951H398H6041H456515You walked through the sea with Your horses, Through the heap of great waters.H1869H3220H5483H2563H7227H432516When I heard, my body trembled; My lips quivered at the voice; Rottenness entered my bones; And I trembled in myself, That I might rest in the day of trouble. When he comes up to the people, He will invade them with his troops.H8085H990H7264H8193H6750H6963H7538H935H6106H7264H5117H3117H6869H5927H5971H1464
A Hymn of Faith
17Though the fig tree may not blossom, Nor fruit be on the vines; Though the labor of the olive may fail, And the fields yield no food; Though the flock may be cut off from the fold, And there be no herd in the stalls—H8384H6524H2981H1612H4639H2132H3584H7709H6213H400H6629H1504H4356H1241H751718Yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will joy in the God of my salvation.H5937H3068H1523H430H346819The LORD God is my strength; He will make my feet like deer's feet, And He will make me walk on my high hills. To the Chief Musician. With my stringed instruments.H3069H136H2428H7760H7272H355H1869H1116H5329H5058
