Habakkuk / Question
Question source
Habakkuk
Habakkuk lists severe losses: no fig blossoms, no fruit on the vines, no olives or fields producing food, and empty flocks and herds. Yet he says he will rejoice in the Lord and take joy in the God of his salvation. This conclusion is in Habakkuk 3:17–18.
17For though the fig tree doesn`t flourish, Nor fruit be in the vines; The labor of the olive fails, The fields yield no food; The flocks are cut off from the fold, And there is no herd in the stalls:
18Yet I will rejoice in Yahweh. I will be joyful in the God of my salvation!
