1A prayer by the prophet Habakkuk, set to music.

1This is a prayer of Habakkuk the prophet, according to Shigionoth:

2LORD, as I listen to what has been said about you, I am afraid. LORD, revive your work throughout all of our lives— reveal yourself throughout all of our lives— when you are angry, remember compassion.

2O LORD, I have heard the report of You; I stand in awe, O LORD, of Your deeds. Revive them in these years; make them known in these years. In Your wrath, remember mercy!

3God comes from Teman — the Holy One from Mount Paran. Interlude His glory spreads throughout the heavens, and praises about him fill the earth.

3God came from Teman, and the Holy One from Mount Paran. Selah His glory covered the heavens, and His praise filled the earth.

4His radiance is like sunlight; beams of light shine from his hand, where his strength lays hidden.

4His radiance was like the sunlight; rays flashed from His hand, where His power is hidden.

5Before him pestilence walks, and disease follows behind him.

5Plague went before Him, and fever followed in His steps.

6He stood up and shook the land; with his stare he startled the nations. The age-old mountains were shattered, and the ancient hilltops bowed down. His ways are eternal.

6He stood and measured the earth; He looked and startled the nations; the ancient mountains crumbled; the perpetual hills collapsed. His ways are everlasting.

7I saw the tents of Cushan in distress, and the tent curtains of the land of Midian in anguish.

7I saw the tents of Cushan in distress; the curtains of Midian were trembling.

8Was the LORD displeased with the rivers? Was your anger directed against the watercourses or your wrath against the sea? Indeed, you rode upon your horses, upon your chariots of deliverance.

8Were You angry at the rivers, O LORD? Was Your wrath against the streams? Did You rage against the sea when You rode on Your horses, on Your chariots of salvation?

9Your bow was exposed, and your arrows targeted by command. Interlude You split the earth with rivers.

9You brandished Your bow; You called for many arrows. Selah You split the earth with rivers.

10When the mountains looked upon you, they trembled; the overflowing water passed by, the ocean shouted, and its waves surged upward.

10The mountains saw You and quaked; torrents of water swept by. The deep roared with its voice and lifted its hands on high.

11The sun and moon stand still in their orbits; at the glint of your arrows they speed along, even at the gleam of your flashing spear.

11Sun and moon stood still in their places at the flash of Your flying arrows, at the brightness of Your shining spear.

12You march through the land in righteous indignation; you tread down the nations in anger.

12You marched across the earth with fury; You threshed the nations in wrath.

13You marched out to deliver your people, to deliver with your anointed. You struck the head of the house of the wicked; you stripped him naked from head to foot. Interlude

13You went forth for the salvation of Your people, to save Your anointed. You crushed the head of the house of the wicked and stripped him from head to toe. Selah

14With his own lances you pierced the heads of his warriors, who came out like a windstorm to scatter us — their joy is to devour the afflicted who are in hiding.

14With his own spear You pierced his head, when his warriors stormed out to scatter us, gloating as though ready to secretly devour the weak.

15You rode on the sea with your horses, even riding the crested waves of mighty waters.

15You trampled the sea with Your horses, churning the great waters.

16I heard and I trembled within. My lips quivered at the noise. My legs gave way beneath me, and I trembled. Nevertheless, I await the day of distress that will dawn on our invaders.

16I heard and trembled within; my lips quivered at the sound. Decay entered my bones; I trembled where I stood. Yet I must wait patiently for the day of distress to come upon the people who invade us.

17Even though the fig tree does not blossom, and there are no grapes on the vines; even if the olive harvest fails, and the fields produce nothing edible; even if the flock is snatched from the sheepfold, and there is no herd in the stalls—

17Though the fig tree does not bud and no fruit is on the vines, though the olive crop fails and the fields produce no food, though the sheep are cut off from the fold and no cattle are in the stalls,

18as for me, I will rejoice in the LORD. I will find my joy in the God who delivers me.

18yet I will exult in the LORD; I will rejoice in the God of my salvation!

19The LORD God is my strength— he will make my feet like those of a deer, equipping me to tread on my mountain heights.

19GOD the Lord is my strength; He makes my feet like those of a deer; He makes me walk upon the heights! For the choirmaster. With stringed instruments.
