A prayer of Habakkuk the prophet, on Shigionoth.
2
O 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.
3
God came from Teman, The Holy One from Mount Paran. Selah His glory covered the heavens, And the earth was full of His praise.
4
His brightness was like the light; He had rays flashing from His hand, And there His power was hidden.
5
Before Him went pestilence, And fever followed at His feet.
6
He 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.
7
I saw the tents of Cushan in affliction; The curtains of the land of Midian trembled.
