Context Readings

The Prayer Of Habakkuk

9 Your bow was made quite bare. The oaths to the tribes were a sure word. You split the earth with your rivers. 10 The mountains saw You and quaked;
The downpour of waters swept by.
The deep uttered forth its voice,
It lifted high its hands.
11 The sun and moon stood still in their habitation. They went away at the light of your arrows and the shining of your glittering spear.
