habakkuk 3:5 Before him went the pestilence, and burning coals went forth at his feet.

habakkuk 3:5 Before Him goes pestilence, And plague comes after Him.

5. pestilence--to destroy His people's foes (1Sa 5:9, 11). As Jehovah's advent is glorious to His people, so it is terrible to His foes.
burning coals-- Ps 18:8 favors English Version. But the parallelism requires, as the Margin translates, "burning disease" (compare De 32:24; Ps 91:6).
went . . . at his feet--that is, after Him, as His attendants (Jud 4:10).

habakkuk 3:5 Before Him goes pestilence, And plague comes after Him.
