Habacuc 3:1-7 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

1. A PRAYER OF HABACUC THE PROPHET FOR IGNORANCES.

2. O Lord, I have heard thy hearing, and was afraid. O Lord, thy work, in the midst of the years bring it to life: In the midst of the years thou shalt make it known: when thou art angry, thou wilt remember mercy.

3. God will come from the south, and the holy one from mount Pharan: His glory covered the heavens, and the earth is full of his praise.

4. His brightness shall be as the light; horns are in his hands: There is his strength hid:

5. Death shall go before his face. And the devil shall go forth before his feet.

6. He stood and measured the earth. He beheld, and melted the nations: and the ancient mountains were crushed to pieces. The hills of the world were bowed down by the journeys of his eternity.

7. I saw the tents of Ethiopia for their iniquity, the curtains of the land of Madian shall be troubled.
