The word translated here as “inner parts” is literally “belly.” If your language has a specific internal organ that it uses to express the feeling of great fear, you could consider using it here. Alternate translation: “my heart beat rapidly” or “my stomach turned”
(Occurrence 0) My lips quivered at the sound
(Some words not found in UHB: I_heard and,trembled within,my to=sound/voice quivered lips,my enters rottenness in/on/at/with,bones,my and,beneath,me tremble which/who wait_quietly for,day calamity to,come upon,people invading,us )

Habakkuk speaks of having no strength in his body as if his bones began to decay. You may consider using an idiom from your own language here. Alternate translation: “My body goes limp, as if my bones were rotting”
