Habakkuk 3:12-14

Contemporary English Version

¹² In your furious anger,
    you trampled on nations
¹³ to rescue your people
    and save your chosen one.^[a]
You crushed a nation's ruler
and stripped his evil kingdom
    of its power.^[b]
14 His troops had come like a storm,
hoping to scatter us
    and glad to gobble us up.
To them we were refugees
    in hiding—
but you smashed their heads
    with their own weapons.^[c]
