Joe: Alright, so we are talking about Habakkuk 3 today. What can you tell me about this chapter?

Bible Expert: Well, Habakkuk 3 is a complex chapter that talks about a lot of different ideas. It starts off with a prayer, talking about God's greatness and His power. It then goes on to talk about God's justice, and how He will judge the wicked and protect the righteous. It also talks about how the righteous will be rewarded and how the wicked will be punished.

Joe: Wow, that's fascinating! So how does God protect the righteous?

Bible Expert: In Habakkuk 3, God promises to protect the righteous by sheltering them in His arms, like a mother bird shielding her young. He also promises to save them from their enemies and to make them victorious in battle.

Joe: Interesting. What about the wicked?

Bible Expert: According to Habakkuk 3, the wicked will be judged and punished for their wickedness. God will bring them to ruin and will not show them any mercy.

Joe: That's a pretty harsh punishment. Does the chapter have anything else to say about God's justice?

Bible Expert: Yes, in verse 18 of Habakkuk 3, God says that He will judge the world with justice and that He will make sure that justice is done. He also promises to be with the righteous during their time of trouble and to never forsake them.

Joe: That's encouraging to hear. Anything else in the chapter worth mentioning?

Bible Expert: Yes, the chapter ends with a call to worship God and to be joyful in Him. It encourages us to put our trust in Him and to not be afraid, no matter what the circumstances.
