The Prayer Of Habakkuk

10 The mountains saw thee, and they trembled: the overflowing of the waters passed by; the abyss uttered its voice; the deep lifted up its hands. 11 Sun and moon stood in their places;
They went away at the light of Your arrows,
At the radiance of Your gleaming spear.
12 Thou didst tread upon the land in wrath; thou didst thresh the Gentiles in anger.
