God with lightnings and thunder accompanying him (3:4). Pestilence and plague flee from him because of his power (3:5). He is sovereign over the universe, including the nations of the world (3:6). God’s wrath is poured out upon the “waters” that oppose him (3:8). God’s coming is for the salvation of his people and his king (3:13). 3:3–15 is a vision of Habakkuk much like the vision God promised him in 2:3. Habakkuk may have had an ecstatic experience in which he “saw” God coming to defeat his enemies.
