Habakkuk’s Confidence in Adonai

A prayer of Habakkuk the prophet, as a passionate song.
Adonai, I have heard the report about You
and I have come to fear.
Adonai, revive Your work throughout the years,
    throughout the years make it known,
In wrath remember compassion.

God comes from Teman,
and the Holy One from Mount Paran. Selah
His majesty covers the heavens,
and His praise fills the earth.
