Habakkuk 3:13-15
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
13 Thou wentest forth for the salvation of thy people,
for the salvation of thy anointed.
Thou didst crush the head of the wicked,[a]
laying him bare from thigh to neck.[b]
Selah
14 Thou didst pierce with thy[c] shafts the head of his warriors,[d]
who came like a whirlwind to scatter me,
rejoicing as if to devour the poor in secret.
15 Thou didst trample the sea with thy horses,
the surging of mighty waters.

13 You came out(A) to deliver(B) your people,
to save your anointed(C) one.
You crushed(D) the leader of the land of wickedness,
you stripped him from head to foot.
14 With his own spear you pierced his head
when his warriors stormed out to scatter us,(E)

the wretched(F) who were in hiding.
15 You trampled the sea(G) with your horses,
churning the great waters.(H)
