Habakkuk 3:9

Verse 9 of 19. The 3rd of 3 chapters in Habakkuk, in The Minor Prophets.

5Plague went before him, and pestilence followed his feet.

6He stood, and shook the earth. He looked, and made the nations tremble. The ancient mountains were crumbled. The age-old hills collapsed. His ways are eternal.

7I saw the tents of Cushan in affliction. The dwellings of the land of Midian trembled.

8Was the LORD displeased with the rivers? Was your anger against the rivers, or your wrath against the sea, that you rode on your horses, on your chariots of salvation?

9You uncovered your bow. You called for your sworn arrows. Selah. You split the earth with rivers.

10The mountains saw you, and were afraid. The storm of waters passed by. The deep roared and lifted up its hands on high.

11The sun and moon stood still in the sky at the light of your arrows as they went, at the shining of your glittering spear.

12You marched through the land in wrath. You threshed the nations in anger.

13You went out for the salvation of your people, for the salvation of your anointed. You crushed the head of the land of wickedness. You stripped them head to foot. Selah.
