Habakkuk 3:5-15 Before him, marcheth pestilence,––and fever, goeth forth, at his feet:

Rotherham⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ Before him, marcheth pestilence,––and fever, goeth forth, at his feet: ⁶ He hath stood and measured the earth, he hath looked, and caused nations to tremble, and, scattered as dust, are the perpetual mountains, and, sunk, are the age–abiding hills,––Forthgoings age–abiding, are his. ⁷ Under distress, saw I the tents of Ethiopia,––tremble, do the curtains of the land of Midian. ⁸ Against the rivers, is Yahweh wroth? Against the rivers, is thine anger? Against the sea, is thine indignation? For thou wilt ride on Thy horses, Thy chariots, [shall be] salvation! ⁹ To nakedness, is bared thy bow, oaths of chastisement––song! Selah. With rivers, thou dost cleave open the land. ¹⁰ The mountains, have seen thee––they tremble, a downpour of waters, hath passed along,––the roaring deep, hath given forth, his voice, on high––his hand, hath he uplifted. ¹¹ Sun, moon, have stood still, on high,––like light, thine arrows, speed along, like brightness, is the flash of thy spear. ¹² In wrath, dost thou stride through the land,––in anger, dost thou thresh the nations. ¹³ Thou hast come forth to the salvation of thy people, to salvation, with thine Anointed One,––Thou hast crushed the Head out of the house of the lawless one, baring the foundation up to the neck, Selah. ¹⁴ Thou hast pierced, with his own staves, the head of his chiefs, they storm along, to scatter me,––their exultant thought, is, in very deed, to devour the oppressed one, in a secret place! ¹⁵ Thou hast driven, into the sea, thy chariot–horses. Foaming are the mighty waters!
