Habakkuk 3:9 in context

  1. 7I saw the tents of Cushan in affliction.
    The dwellings of the land of Midian trembled.
  2. 8Was Yahweh 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?
  3. 9You uncovered your bow.
    You called for your sworn arrows.
    You split the earth with rivers.
  4. 10The mountains saw you, and were afraid.
    The storm of waters passed by.
    The deep roared and lifted up its hands on high.
  5. 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.
