Habakkuk 3:7-12
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 3
7I saw the tents of Cushan under distress, The tent curtains of the land of Midian were trembling. 8Did the Lord rage against the rivers, Or was Your anger against the rivers, Or was Your rage against the sea, That You rode on Your horses, On Your chariots of salvation? 9You removed Your bow from its holder, The arrows of Your word were sworn. Selah You divided the earth with rivers. 10The mountains saw You and quaked; The downpour of waters swept by. The deep raised its voice, It lifted high its hands. 11Sun and moon stood in their lofty places; They went away at the light of Your arrows, At the radiance of Your flashing spear. 12In indignation You marched through the earth; In anger You trampled the nations.King James Version
Chapter 3
7I saw the tents of Cushan in affliction: and the curtains of the land of Midian did tremble. 8Was the LORD displeased against the rivers? was thine anger against the rivers? was thy wrath against the sea, that thou didst ride upon thine horses and thy chariots of salvation? 9Thy bow was made quite naked, according to the oaths of the tribes, even thy word. Selah. Thou didst cleave the earth with rivers. 10The mountains saw thee, and they trembled: the overflowing of the water passed by: the deep uttered his voice, and lifted up his hands on high. 11The sun and moon stood still in their habitation: at the light of thine arrows they went, and at the shining of thy glittering spear. 12Thou didst march through the land in indignation, thou didst thresh the heathen in anger.Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 3
7I see the tents of Cushan in distress; the tent curtains of the land of Midian tremble. 8Are you angry at the rivers, Lord? Is your wrath against the rivers? Or is your fury against the sea when you ride on your horses, your victorious chariot?
9You took the sheath from your bow; the arrows are ready to be used with an oath. Selah You split the earth with rivers.
10The mountains see you and shudder; a downpour of water sweeps by. The deep roars with its voice and lifts its waves high.
11Sun and moon stand still in their lofty residence, at the flash of your flying arrows, at the brightness of your shining spear.
12You march across the earth with indignation; you trample down the nations in wrath.
New Living Translation
8Was 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!
9You brandished your bow and your quiver of arrows. You split open the earth with flowing rivers.
10The mountains watched and trembled. Onward swept the raging waters. The mighty deep cried out, lifting its hands in submission.
11The sun and moon stood still in the sky as your brilliant arrows flew and your glittering spear flashed.

Chapter 3
7I saw the tents of Cushan in affliction; the curtains of the land of Midian did tremble. 8Was your wrath against the rivers, O LORD? Was your anger against the rivers, or your indignation against the sea, when you rode on your horses, on your chariot of salvation? 9You stripped the sheath from your bow, calling for many arrows. Selah You split the earth with rivers. 10The mountains saw you and writhed; the raging waters swept on; the deep gave forth its voice; it lifted its hands on high. 11The sun and moon stood still in their place at the light of your arrows as they sped, at the flash of your glittering spear. 12You marched through the earth in fury; you threshed the nations in anger.New International Version
Chapter 3
7I saw the tents of Cushan in distress, the dwellings of Midian in anguish. 8Were you angry with the rivers, LORD? Was your wrath against the streams? Did you rage against the sea when you rode your horses and your chariots to victory? 9You uncovered your bow, you called for many arrows. You split the earth with rivers;
10the mountains saw you and writhed. Torrents of water swept by; the deep roared and lifted its waves on high.
11Sun and moon stood still in the heavens at the glint of your flying arrows, at the lightning of your flashing spear.
12In wrath you strode through the earth and in anger you threshed the nations.
