(Habakkuk
3:3-19)
[Habakkuk is given a
vision of God coming in The Time of The END
To deliver His people.]
3 God came from
Teman, the Holy One from Mount Paran.
His glory covered
the heavens and His praise filled the Earth.
4 His splendor was
like the sunrise; rays flashed from His hand,
Where His power was
hidden.
5 Plague went before
him; pestilence followed his steps.
6
HE STOOD AND SHOOK THE EARTH;
HE
LOOKED, AND MADE THE NATIONS TREMBLE.
The ancient
mountains crumbled and the age-old hills collapsed.
His ways are
eternal.
7 I saw the tents of
Cushan in distress,
The dwellings of
Midian in anguish.
8 Were You angry
with the rivers, O Lord?
Was Your wrath
against the streams?
Did You rage against
the sea
When You rode with
your horses
And your victorious
chariots?
9 You uncovered Your
bow,
You called for many
arrows.
You split the earth
with rivers;
10 The mountains saw
You and writhed.
Torrents of water
swept by;
The deep roared and
lifted its waves on high.
11 Sun and moon
stood still in the heavens
At the glint of your
flying arrows,
At the lightning of
your flashing spear.
12
IN WRATH YOU STRODE THROUGH THE EARTH
AND
IN ANGER YOU THRESHED THE NATIONS.
13
YOU CAME OUT TO DELIVER YOUR PEOPLE,
TO
SAVE YOUR ANOINTED ONE.
YOU
CRUSHED THE LEADER
OF
THE LAND OF WICKEDNESS (Satan),
You stripped him
from head to foot.
14 With his own
spear you pierced his head
When his warriors
stormed out to scatter us,
Gloating as though
about to devour the wretched
Who were in hiding.
15 You trampled the
sea with your horses,
Churning the great
waters.
16 I heard and my
heart pounded,
My lips quivered at
the sound;
Decay crept into my
bones,
And my legs
trembled.
Yet I will wait
patiently for the day of calamity
To come to the
nation invading us.
17 Though the fig
tree does not bud
And there are no
grapes on the vines,
Though the olive
crop fails and the fields produce no food,
Though there are no
sheep in the pen
And no cattle in the
stalls,
18
YET I WILL REJOICE IN THE LORD,
I
WILL BE JOYFUL IN GOD MY SAVIOR.
19 The Sovereign
Lord is my strength;
He makes my feet
like the feet of a deer,
He enables me to go
on the heights.
(Habakkuk
3:3-19)
