New Testament

Habakkuk 3:11-16 Common English Bible (CEB)

11. Sun and moon stand still high above.With the light, your arrows shoot,your spear at the flash of lightning.

12. In fury, you stride the earth;in anger you tread the nations.

13. You go out to save your people.For the salvation of your anointedyou smashed the head of the house of wickedness,laying bare the foundation up to the neck. Selah

14. You pierce the head of his warrior with his own spear.His warriors are driven off,those who take delight in oppressing us,those who take pleasure in secretly devouring the poor.

15. You make your horses tread on the sea;turbulent waters foam.

16. I hear and my insides tremble.My lips quiver at the sound.Rottenness enters my bones.I tremble while I stand,while I wait for the day of distress to come against the people who attack us.
