The Prophet’s Prayer
1 A prayer of Habakkuk the prophet, on Shigionoth.
2 O Lord, I have heard Your speech and was afraid;
O Lord, revive Your work in the midst of the years!
In the midst of the years make it known;
In wrath remember mercy.
O Lord, revive Your work in the midst of the years!
In the midst of the years make it known;
In wrath remember mercy.

The Holy One from Mount Paran. Selah

The perpetual hills bowed.
His ways are everlasting.

8 O Lord, were You displeased with the rivers,
Was Your anger against the rivers,
Was Your wrath against the sea,
That You rode on Your horses,
Your chariots of salvation?

10 The mountains saw You and trembled;
The overflowing of the water passed by.
The deep uttered its voice,
And alifted its hands on high.

11 The asun and moon stood still in their habitation;
At the light of Your arrows they went,
At the shining of Your glittering spear.
At the light of Your arrows they went,
At the shining of Your glittering spear.
