1 A prayer of Ḥaḇaqquq the prophet, on Shig̅ionoth.
2 O יהוה, I have heard your report, I was afraid. O יהוה, renew Your work in the midst of the years! Make it known in the midst of the years. In wrath remember compassion.
3 Eloah comes from Tĕman, And the Set-apart One from Mount Paran. Selah. His splendour shall cover the heavens, And His praise shall fill the earth.
4 And the brightness is as the light, He has rays from His hand, And there His power is hidden.
5 Before Him goes pestilence, And a burning flame goes forth at His feet.
6 He shall stand and measure the earth. He shall look and shake the nations. And the ancient mountains are shattered, The age-old hills shall bow. His ways are everlasting.
7 I saw the tents of Kushan under sorrow, The curtains of the land of Miḏyan tremble.
