Habakkuk 2:20

Context

2:20 But the Lord is in his majestic palace. 1 

The whole earth is speechless in his presence!” 2 

1 tn Or “holy temple.” The Lord’s heavenly palace, rather than the earthly temple, is probably in view here (see Ps 11:4; Mic 1:2-3). The Hebrew word ֹקדֶשׁ (qodesh, “holy”) here refers to the sovereign transcendence associated with his palace.

2 tn Or “Be quiet before him, all the earth!”
