New King James Version

New Living Translation

  • The Prophet’s Prayer

    A prayer of Habakkuk the prophet, on [a]Shigionoth.
  • Habakkuk’s Prayer

    This prayer was sung by the prophet Habakkuka:
  • 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.
  • I have heard all about you, LORD.
    I am filled with awe by your amazing works.
    In this time of our deep need,
    help us again as you did in years gone by.
    And in your anger,
    remember your mercy.
  • God came from Teman,
    The Holy One from Mount Paran. Selah
    His glory covered the heavens,
    And the earth was full of His praise.
  • I see God moving across the deserts from Edom,b
    the Holy One coming from Mount Paran.c
    His brilliant splendor fills the heavens,
    and the earth is filled with his praise.
  • His brightness was like the light;
    He had rays flashing from His hand,
    And there His power was hidden.
  • His coming is as brilliant as the sunrise.
    Rays of light flash from his hands,
    where his awesome power is hidden.
  • Before Him went pestilence,
    And fever followed at His feet.
  • Pestilence marches before him;
    plague follows close behind.
  • He stood and measured the earth;
    He looked and startled the nations.
    And the everlasting mountains were scattered,
    The perpetual hills bowed.
    His ways are everlasting.
  • When he stops, the earth shakes.
    When he looks, the nations tremble.
    He shatters the everlasting mountains
    and levels the eternal hills.
    He is the Eternal One!d
  • I saw the tents of Cushan in affliction;
    The curtains of the land of Midian trembled.
  • I see the people of Cushan in distress,
    and the nation of Midian trembling in terror.
  • 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?
  • Was it in anger, LORD, that you struck the rivers
    and parted the sea?
    Were you displeased with them?
    No, you were sending your chariots of salvation!
  • Your bow was made quite ready;
    Oaths were sworn over Your [b]arrows. Selah
    You divided the earth with rivers.
  • You brandished your bow
    and your quiver of arrows.
    You split open the earth with flowing rivers.
  • The mountains saw You and trembled;
    The overflowing of the water passed by.
    The deep uttered its voice,
    And lifted its hands on high.
  • The mountains watched and trembled.
    Onward swept the raging waters.
    The mighty deep cried out,
    lifting its hands in submission.
  • The sun and moon stood still in their habitation;
    At the light of Your arrows they went,
    At the shining of Your glittering spear.
  • The sun and moon stood still in the sky
    as your brilliant arrows flew
    and your glittering spear flashed.
  • You marched through the land in indignation;
    You [c]trampled the nations in anger.
  • You marched across the land in anger
    and trampled the nations in your fury.
  • You went forth for the salvation of Your people,
    For salvation with Your Anointed.
    You struck the head from the house of the wicked,
    By laying bare from foundation to neck. Selah
  • You went out to rescue your chosen people,
    to save your anointed ones.
    You crushed the heads of the wicked
    and stripped their bones from head to toe.
  • You thrust through with his own arrows
    The head of his villages.
    They came out like a whirlwind to scatter me;
    Their rejoicing was like feasting on the poor in secret.
  • With his own weapons,
    you destroyed the chief of those
    who rushed out like a whirlwind,
    thinking Israel would be easy prey.
  • You walked through the sea with Your horses,
    Through the heap of great waters.
  • You trampled the sea with your horses,
    and the mighty waters piled high.
  • When I heard, my body trembled;
    My lips quivered at the voice;
    Rottenness entered my bones;
    And I trembled in myself,
    That I might rest in the day of trouble.
    When he comes up to the people,
    He will invade them with his troops.
  • I trembled inside when I heard this;
    my lips quivered with fear.
    My legs gave way beneath me,e
    and I shook in terror.
    I will wait quietly for the coming day
    when disaster will strike the people who invade us.
  • A Hymn of Faith

    Though the fig tree may not blossom,
    Nor fruit be on the vines;
    Though the labor of the olive may fail,
    And the fields yield no food;
    Though the flock may be cut off from the fold,
    And there be no herd in the stalls —
  • Even though the fig trees have no blossoms,
    and there are no grapes on the vines;
    even though the olive crop fails,
    and the fields lie empty and barren;
    even though the flocks die in the fields,
    and the cattle barns are empty,
  • Yet I will rejoice in the Lord,
    I will joy in the God of my salvation.
  • yet I will rejoice in the LORD!
    I will be joyful in the God of my salvation!
  • [d]The Lord God is my strength;
    He will make my feet like deer’s feet,
    And He will make me walk on my high hills.
    To the Chief Musician. With my stringed instruments.
  • The Sovereign LORD is my strength!
    He makes me as surefooted as a deer,f
    able to tread upon the heights.
    (For the choir director: This prayer is to be accompanied by stringed instruments.)
