Habakkuk 3:8-11
New King James Version
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?
9 Your bow was made quite ready;
Oaths were sworn over Your [a]arrows. Selah
You divided the earth with rivers.
10 The mountains saw You and trembled;
The overflowing of the water passed by.
The deep uttered its voice,
And (A)lifted its hands on high.
11 The (B)sun and moon stood still in their habitation;
At the light of Your arrows they went,
At the shining of Your glittering spear.
