Habakkuk 3:1 (NET) New English Translation

1 This is a prayer of Habakkuk the prophet:
2 LORD, I have heard the report of what you did; I am awed, LORD, by what you accomplished. In our time repeat those deeds; in our time reveal them again. But when you cause turmoil, remember to show us mercy!
3 God comes from Teman, the sovereign one from Mount Paran. Selah. His splendor covers the skies, his glory fills the earth.
4 He is as bright as lightning; a two-pronged lightning bolt flashes from his hand. This is the outward display of his power.
5 Plague goes before him; pestilence marches right behind him.
6 He takes his battle position and shakes the earth; with a mere look he frightens the nations. The ancient mountains disintegrate; the primeval hills are flattened. He travels on the ancient roads.
7 I see the tents of Cushan overwhelmed by trouble; the tent curtains of the land of Midian are shaking.
8 Is the LORD mad at the rivers? Are you angry with the rivers? Are you enraged at the sea? Is this why you climb into your horse-drawn chariots, your victorious chariots?
9 Your bow is ready for action; you commission your arrows. Selah. You cause flash floods on the earth's surface.
10 When the mountains see you, they shake. The torrential downpour sweeps through. The great deep shouts out; it lifts its hands high.
11 The sun and moon stand still in their courses; the flash of your arrows drives them away, the bright light of your lightning-quick spear.
12 You furiously stomp on the earth, you angrily trample down the nations.
13 You march out to deliver your people, to deliver your special servant. You strike the leader of the wicked nation, laying him open from the lower body to the neck. Selah.
14 You pierce the heads of his warriors with a spear. They storm forward to scatter us; they shout with joy as if they were plundering the poor with no opposition.
15 But you trample on the sea with your horses, on the surging, raging waters.
16 I listened and my stomach churned; the sound made my lips quiver. My frame went limp, as if my bones were decaying, and I shook as I tried to walk. I long for the day of distress to come upon the people who attack us.
17 When the fig tree does not bud, and there are no grapes on the vines; when the olive trees do not produce, and the fields yield no crops; when the sheep disappear from the pen, and there are no cattle in the stalls,
18 I will rejoice because of the LORD; I will be happy because of the God who delivers me!
19 The sovereign LORD is my source of strength. He gives me the agility of a deer; he enables me to negotiate the rugged terrain. (This prayer is for the song leader. It is to be accompanied by stringed instruments.)
1 A prayer H8605 of Habakkuk H2265 the prophet H5030 upon H5921 Shigionoth. H7692
2 O LORD, H3068 I have heard H8085 thy speech, H8088 and was afraid: H3372 O LORD, H3068 revive H2421 thy work H6467 in the midst H7130 of the years, H8141 in the midst H7130 of the years H8141 make known; H3045 in wrath H7267 remember H2142 mercy. H7355
3 God H433 came H935 from Teman H4480 H8487 , and the Holy One H6918 from mount H4480 H2022 Paran. H6290 Selah. H5542 His glory H1935 covered H3680 the heavens, H8064 and the earth H776 was full H4390 of his praise. H8416
4 And his brightness H5051 was H1961 as the light; H216 he had horns H7161 coming out of his hand H4480 H3027 : and there H8033 was the hiding H2253 of his power. H5797
5 Before H6440 him went H1980 the pestilence, H1698 and burning coals H7565 went forth H3318 at his feet. H7272
6 He stood, H5975 and measured H4128 the earth: H776 he beheld, H7200 and drove asunder H5425 the nations; H1471 and the everlasting H5703 mountains H2042 were scattered, H6327 the perpetual H5769 hills H1389 did bow: H7817 his ways H1979 are everlasting. H5769
7 I saw H7200 the tents H168 of Cushan H3572 in H8478 affliction: H205 and the curtains H3407 of the land H776 of Midian H4080 did tremble. H7264
8 Was the LORD H3068 displeased H2734 against the rivers H5104 ? was thine anger H639 against the rivers H5104 ? was thy wrath H5678 against the sea, H3220 that H3588 thou didst ride H7392 upon H5921 thine horses H5483 and thy chariots H4818 of salvation H3444 ?
9 Thy bow H7198 was made quite naked H5783 H6181 , according to the oaths H7621 of the tribes, H4294 even thy word. H562 Selah. H5542 Thou didst cleave H1234 the earth H776 with rivers. H5104
10 The mountains H2022 saw H7200 thee, and they trembled: H2342 the overflowing H2230 of the water H4325 passed by: H5674 the deep H8415 uttered H5414 his voice, H6963 and lifted up H5375 his hands H3027 on high. H7315
11 The sun H8121 and moon H3394 stood still H5975 in their habitation: H2073 at the light H216 of thine arrows H2671 they went, H1980 and at the shining H5051 of thy glittering H1300 spear. H2595
12 Thou didst march through H6805 the land H776 in indignation, H2195 thou didst thresh H1758 the heathen H1471 in anger. H639
13 Thou wentest forth H3318 for the salvation H3468 of thy people, H5971 even for salvation H3468 with H854 thine anointed; H4899 thou woundedst H4272 the head H7218 out of the house H4480 H1004 of the wicked, H7563 by discovering H6168 the foundation H3247 unto H5704 the neck. H6677 Selah. H5542
14 Thou didst strike through H5344 with his staves H4294 the head H7218 of his villages: H6518 they came out as a whirlwind H5590 to scatter H6327 me : their rejoicing H5951 was as H3644 to devour H398 the poor H6041 secretly. H4565
15 Thou didst walk H1869 through the sea H3220 with thine horses, H5483 through the heap H2563 of great H7227 waters. H4325
16 When I heard, H8085 my belly H990 trembled; H7264 my lips H8193 quivered H6750 at the voice: H6963 rottenness H7538 entered H935 into my bones, H6106 and I trembled H7264 in H8478 myself, that H834 I might rest H5117 in the day H3117 of trouble: H6869 when he cometh up H5927 unto the people, H5971 he will invade H1464 them with his troops.
17 Although H3588 the fig tree H8384 shall not H3808 blossom, H6524 neither H369 shall fruit H2981 be in the vines; H1612 the labor H4639 of the olive H2132 shall fail, H3584 and the fields H7709 shall yield H6213 no H3808 meat; H400 the flock H6629 shall be cut off H1504 from the fold H4480 H4356 , and there shall be no H369 herd H1241 in the stalls: H7517
18 Yet I H589 will rejoice H5937 in the LORD, H3068 I will joy H1523 in the God H430 of my salvation. H3468
19 The LORD H3068 God H136 is my strength, H2428 and he will make H7760 my feet H7272 like hinds' H355 feet , and he will make me to walk H1869 upon H5921 mine high places. H1116 To the chief singer H5329 on my stringed instruments. H5058
