Here Habakkuk is speaking of lightning as if it were arrows and a spear that God uses as weapons. If this image communicates well in your language, please use it. If not, you could express this as a comparison. Alternate translation: [at the flash of your lightning bolts as they streaked, at the gleam of your flashing lightning]

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
Acknowledgements: The Hebrew text, lemmas, and morphology are all thanks to the OSHB and some of the glosses are from Macula Hebrew.
