¹This is a prayer of Habakkuk the prophet, according to Shigionoth: ²O LORD, I have heard the report of You; ³God came from Teman, ⁴His radiance was like the sunlight; ⁵Plague went before Him, ⁶He stood and measured the earth; ⁷I saw the tents of Cushan in distress; ⁸Were You angry at the rivers, O LORD? ⁹You brandished Your bow; ¹⁰The mountains saw You and quaked; ¹¹Sun and moon stood still ¹²You marched across the earth with fury; ¹³You went forth for the salvation of Your people, ¹⁴With his own spear You pierced his head, ¹⁵You trampled the sea with Your horses, ¹⁶I heard and trembled within;
