Habakkuk 3 (ASV Interlinear Bible)

1A prayer of Habakkuk the prophet, set to Shigionoth.

2O Jehovah, I have heard

⁎

Or, thy fame

the report of thee, and

⁎

Or, was

am afraid:

O Jehovah, revive thy work in the midst of the years;

In the midst of the years make it known;

In wrath remember mercy.

3God

⁎

Or, cometh (and similarly to the end of verse 15)

came from Teman,

And the Holy One from mount Paran. Selah

His glory covered the heavens,

And the earth was full of his praise.

4And his brightness was as the light;

He had

⁎

Hebrew horns.

rays coming forth

⁎

Or, at his side

from his hand;

And there was the hiding of his power.

5Before him went the pestilence,

And

⁎

Or, burning coals

fiery bolts went forth at his feet.

6He stood, and

⁎

Or, shook

measured the earth;

He beheld, and drove asunder the nations;

And the eternal mountains were scattered;

The everlasting hills did bow;

⁎

Or, His ways are everlasting

His goings were as of old.

7I saw the tents of Cushan in affliction;

The curtains of the land of Midian did tremble.

8Was Jehovah displeased with the rivers?

Was thine anger against the rivers,

Or thy wrath against the sea,

That thou didst ride upon thy horses,

Upon thy chariots of salvation?

9Thy bow was made quite bare;

⁎

Or, Sworn were the chastisements (Hebrew rods) of thy word

The oaths to the tribes were a sure word. Selah

Thou didst cleave the earth with rivers.

10The mountains saw thee, and

⁎

Or, were in pain

were afraid;

The tempest of waters passed by;

The deep uttered its voice,

And lifted up its hands on high.

11The sun and moon stood still in their habitation,

At the light of thine arrows as they went,

At the shining of thy glittering spear.

12Thou didst march through the land in indignation;

Thou didst thresh the nations in anger.

13Thou

⁎

Or, art come

wentest forth for the salvation of thy people,

⁎

Or, For salvation (or, victory) with thine anointed

For the salvation of thine anointed;

⁎

Or, Thou didst smite off the head from the house etc.

Thou

⁎

Or, hast wounded

woundedst the head out of the house of the wicked man,

Laying bare the foundation even unto the neck. Selah

14Thou

⁎

Or, hast pierced

didst pierce with his own staves the head of his

⁎

Or, hordes. Or, villages

warriors:

They came as a whirlwind to scatter me;

Their rejoicing was as to devour the poor secretly.

15Thou

⁎

Or, hast trodden

didst tread the sea with thy horses,

The

⁎

Or, surge

heap of mighty waters.

16I heard, and my body trembled,

My lips quivered at the voice;

Rottenness entereth into my bones, and I tremble in my place;

Because I must wait quietly for the day of trouble,

⁎

Or, When there shall come up against the people he that invadeth them

For the coming up of the people that invadeth us.

17For though the fig-tree shall not flourish,

Neither shall fruit be in the vines;

The labor of the olive shall fail,

And the fields shall yield no food;

The flock shall be cut off from the fold,

And there shall be no herd in the stalls:

18Yet I will rejoice in Jehovah,

I will joy in the God of my salvation.

19Jehovah, the Lord, is my strength;

And he maketh my feet like hinds’ feet,

And will make me to walk upon my high places.

For the Chief Musician, on my stringed instruments.
