“Pestilence went before him.
The plague followed close behind.
Yahweh stopped.
He shook the earth.
He looked.
He made the nations tremble.
The eternal mountains
Were shattered.
The everlasting hills
Sank low,
Along his ancient pathways.”
Habakkuk remarked that Yahweh was powerful. Pestilence went before him, while the plague followed him. Yahweh stopped and shook the earth. As he looked, the various countries trembled. The eternal mountains and the everlasting hills were shattered, as they sank low to provide a path for him.
