New Testament

Habakkuk 3:3-11 English Standard Version (ESV)

3. God came from Teman, and the Holy One from Mount Paran. SelahHis splendor 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 veiled his power.

5. Before him went pestilence,and plague followed at his heels.

6. He stood and measured the earth;he looked and shook the nations;then the eternal mountains were scattered;the everlasting hills sank low.His were the everlasting ways.

7. I saw the tents of Cushan in affliction; the curtains of the land of Midian did tremble.

8. Was your wrath against the rivers, O Lord?Was your anger against the rivers, or your indignation against the sea, when you rode on your horses, on your chariot of salvation?

9. You stripped the sheath from your bow,calling for many arrows. Selah You split the earth with rivers.

10. The mountains saw you and writhed;the raging waters swept on; the deep gave forth its voice; it lifted its hands on high.

11. The sun and moon stood still in their place at the light of your arrows as they sped,at the flash of your glittering spear.
