Habakkuk 3:12

Read in context

Habakkuk 3:10–14 · Berean Standard Bible

10 The mountains saw You and quaked; torrents of water swept by. The deep roared with its voice and lifted its hands on high.

11 Sun and moon stood still in their places at the flash of Your flying arrows, at the brightness of Your shining spear.

12 You marched across the earth with fury; You threshed the nations in wrath.

13 You went forth for the salvation of Your people, to save Your anointed. You crushed the head of the house of the wicked and stripped him from head to toe. Selah

14 With his own spear You pierced his head, when his warriors stormed out to scatter us, gloating as though ready to secretly devour the weak.
