Habakkuk 3

Habakkuk's prayer (təfillâ) invokes YHWH's past theophany from Teman and Mount Paran, depicting His majestic power over creation, nations, rivers, and enemies for the salvation of His people and anointed one, crushing the wicked.[1][2][5] Despite trembling at coming judgment, he rejoices in YHWH, the God of his salvation, trusting Him as strength to make his feet like hinds' feet on high places amid desolation.[1][2][5]
