3 The prayer of Habakkuk the prophet, according to Shigionoth.[fn]
2 Yahweh, I have heard your report, and I fear.
O Yahweh, revive your work in the midst of the years; in the midst of the years make it known;
remember to have compassion in your wrath.
3 God came from Teman, and 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; rays flashed from his hand;
and there he hid his power.
5 Deadly disease went before him,
and the plague followed at his heels.
6 He stood and measured the earth; he looked and made the nations tremble.
Even the eternal mountains were shattered, and the everlasting hills bowed down.
His ways are everlasting.
7 I saw the tents of Cushan in affliction, and the tent curtains in the land of Midian trembling.
8 Was your wrath against the rivers, O Yahweh? Was your anger against the rivers,
or your fury against the sea,
when you rode upon your horses and your victorious chariots?
9 You removed the sheath from your bow; you called for many arrows! Selah.
You split the earth with rivers.
10 The mountains saw you and twisted in pain.
Downpours of water passed over them; the deep sea raised its voice.
It lifted up its waves on high.
11 The sun and moon stood still in their high places
at the light of your arrows as they fly,
at the gleam of your flashing spear.
12 You have marched over the earth with indignation. In anger you have threshed the nations.
13 You went out for the salvation of your people, for the salvation of your anointed one.
You crush the head of the house of the wicked to lay him bare from the thigh up to the neck. Selah
14 You have pierced the head of his warriors with his own arrows since they came like a storm to scatter us,
their gloating was like one who devours the afflicted in a hiding place.
15 You have trampled on the sea with your horses, on the surge of the great waters.
16 I heard, and my inner parts trembled! My lips quivered at the sound.
Decay enters into my bones, and my legs tremble beneath me
Yet I will wait quietly for the day of distress to come upon the people who invade us.
17 Though the fig tree does not bud
and there is no fruit on the vines;
and though the produce of the olive tree fails
and the fields yield no food;
and though the flock is cut off from the fold
and there are no cattle in the stalls,
18 yet, I will rejoice in Yahweh.
I will be joyful because of the God of my salvation.
19 The Lord Yahweh is my strength
and he makes my feet like the feet of a deer.
He makes me tread on my high places.
For the music director, on my stringed instruments.
The Hebrew text adds the expression on shigionoth, which may refer to musical directions for singers.
