* A Prayer of Habakkuk the prophet upon Shigionoth . * Jehovah , I heard the report of thee , [and ] I feared . Jehovah , revive thy work in the midst of the years , In the midst of the years make [it ] known : In wrath remember mercy ! * +God came from Teman , And the Holy One from mount Paran . Selah . His glory covereth the heavens , And the earth is full of his praise . * And [his ] brightness was as the light ; Rays [came forth ] from his hand ; And there was the hiding of his power . * Before him went the pestilence , And a burning flame went forth at his feet . * He stood , and measured the earth ; He beheld , and discomfited the nations ; And the eternal mountains were scattered , The everlasting hills gave way : His ways are everlasting . * I saw the tents of Cushan in affliction ; The curtains of the land of Midian did tremble . * Was Jehovah wrathful with the rivers ? Was thine anger against the rivers ? Was thy rage against the sea , That thou didst ride upon thy horses , Thy chariots of salvation ? * Thy bow was made naked , The rods [of discipline ] sworn according to [thy ] word . Selah . Thou didst cleave the earth with rivers . * The mountains saw thee , they were in travail : Torrents of waters passed by ; The deep uttered its voice , Lifted up its hands on high . * The sun [and ] moon stood still in their habitation , At the light of thine arrows which shot forth , -- At the shining of thy glittering spear . * Thou didst march through the land in indignation , Thou didst thresh the nations in anger . * Thou wentest forth for the salvation of thy people , For the salvation of thine anointed ; Thou didst smite off the head from the house of the wicked , Laying bare the foundation even to the neck . Selah . * Thou didst strike through with his own spears the head of his leaders : They came out as a whirlwind to scatter me , Whose exulting was as to devour the afflicted secretly . * Thou didst walk through the sea with thy horses , The heap of great waters . * I heard , and my belly trembled ; My lips quivered at the voice ; Rottenness entered into my bones , and I trembled in my place , That I might rest in the day of distress , When their invader shall come up against the people . * For though the fig-tree shall not blossom , Neither shall fruit be in the vines ; The labour of the olive-tree shall fail , And the fields shall yield no food ; The flock shall be cut off from the fold , And there shall be no herd in the stalls : * Yet I will rejoice in Jehovah , I will joy in the God of my salvation . * Jehovah , the Lord , is my strength , And he maketh my feet like hinds ' [feet ], And he will make me to walk upon my high places . To the chief Musician . On my stringed instruments .
