Habakkuk 3:16

I hear [God speaking, see verse 2], and my body shakes (I feel nauseous),
my lips tremble at the sound,
my legs rot (the word also means rheumatism)
and I shake where I stand.
I will still rest (be at peace – Hebr. noach; similarto Noah's name, see also Gen. 8:4) on the day of disaster
when he [the Babylonians] comes upon the people [the Israelites] he is invading.
