## Habakkuk 3:13-14 in Context (Verses 10–17 KJV)
 
 [10 ](/kjv/habakkuk/3/10) The mountains saw thee, *and* they trembled: the overflowing of the water passed by: the deep uttered his voice, *and* lifted up his hands on high.
 
 [11 ](/kjv/habakkuk/3/11) The sun *and* moon stood still in their habitation: at the light of thine arrows they went, *and* at the shining of thy glittering spear.*
 
 [12 ](/kjv/habakkuk/3/12) Thou didst march through the land in indignation, thou didst thresh the heathen in anger.
 
 [13 ](/kjv/habakkuk/3/13) Thou wentest forth for the salvation of thy people, *even* for salvation with thine anointed; thou woundedst the head out of the house of the wicked, by discovering the foundation unto the neck. Selah.*
 
 [14 ](/kjv/habakkuk/3/14) Thou didst strike through with his staves the head of his villages: they came out as a whirlwind to scatter me: their rejoicing *was* as to devour the poor secretly.*
 
 [15 ](/kjv/habakkuk/3/15) Thou didst walk through the sea with thine horses, *through* the heap of great waters.*
 
 [16 ](/kjv/habakkuk/3/16) When I heard, my belly trembled; my lips quivered at the voice: rottenness entered into my bones, and I trembled in myself, that I might rest in the day of trouble: when he cometh up unto the people, he will invade them with his troops.*
 
 [17 ](/kjv/habakkuk/3/17) ¶ Although the fig tree shall not blossom, neither *shall* fruit *be* in the vines; the labour of the olive shall fail, and the fields shall yield no meat; the flock shall be cut off from the fold, and *there shall be* no herd in the stalls:*
 
[Habakkuk 2](/kjv/habakkuk/2) [Zephaniah 1](/kjv/zephaniah/1)
