Habakkuk 3:13-15
New International Version
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)
gloating as though about to devour
the wretched(F) who were in hiding.
15 You trampled the sea(G) with your horses,
churning the great waters.(H)
