The Prayer Of Habakkuk

9 Your bow is ready for action; you commission your arrows. Selah. You cause flash floods on the earth's surface. 10 When the mountains see you, they shake. The torrential downpour sweeps through. The great deep shouts out; it lifts its hands high. 11 The sun and moon stand still in their courses; the flash of your arrows drives them away, the bright light of your lightning-quick spear.
