Habakkuk's Prayer

A prayer of Habakkuk the prophet, according to Shigionoth.

O Lord, (A)I have heard the report of you,
    and (B)your work, O Lord, do I fear.
In the midst of the years (C)revive it;
    in the midst of the years make it known;
    (D)in wrath remember mercy.
God came from (E)Teman,
    (F)and the Holy One from Mount Paran. Selah
His splendor covered the heavens,
    and the earth was full of his praise.
(G)His brightness was like the light;
    rays flashed from his hand;
    and there he veiled his power.
(H)Before him went pestilence,
    and plague followed (I)at his heels.[a]
