Habakkuk 3

1A prayer of the prophet Habakkuk according to Shigionoth.

The Prophet’s Prayer

2

His glory covered the heavens,

and the earth was full of his praise.

4 O Lord,

or your anger against the rivers

or your rage against the sea,

when you drove your horses,

your chariots to victory?

9 were the arrows at your command. Selah

You split the earth with rivers.

10 Selah

14You pierced with their own arrows the head of his warriors,

who came like a whirlwind to scatter us,

gloating as if ready to devour the poor who were in hiding.

15 beneath me.

I wait quietly for the day of calamity

to come upon the people who attack us.

Trust and Joy in the Midst of Trouble

17

To the leader: with stringed instruments.
