Habakkuk 3:8

Was the LORD displeased against the rivers? was thine anger against the rivers? was thy wrath against the sea, that thou didst ride upon thine horses and thy chariots of salvation?

KJV

Numquid in fluminibus iratus es, Domine ? aut in fluminibus furor tuus ? vel in mari indignatio tua ? Qui ascendes super equos tuos, et quadrigæ tuæ salvatio.

Vulgate

μὴ ἐν ποταμοῖς ὠργίσθης, Κύριε; ἢ ἐν ποταμοῖς ὁ θυμός σου; ἢ ἐν θαλάσσῃ τὸ ὅρμημά σου; ὅτι ἐπιβήσῃ ἐπὶ τοὺς ἵππους σου, καὶ ἡ ἱππασία σου σωτηρία.

LXX

Was Jehovah displeased with the rivers? Was thine anger against the rivers, Or thy wrath against the sea, That thou didst ride upon thy horses, Upon thy chariots of salvation?
