< Habakkuk 3 >
1 Hae loe Shigionoth nuiah Tahmaa Habakkuk lawkthuihaih ah oh.
A prayer of Habakkuk the prophet concerning erring ones:
2 Aw Angraeng, na thuih ih lok to ka thaih boeh moe, ka zit: Aw Angraeng, kaicae dung ah na sak ih tok to angthasak let ah loe, kaicae ih atue thuem ah panoeksak ah; palung na phui cadoeh palungnathaih to tawn rae ah.
O Jehovah, I heard thy report, I have been afraid, O Jehovah, Thy work! in midst of years revive it, In the midst of years Thou makest known In anger Thou dost remember mercy.
3 Sithaw loe Teman hoiah angzoh, Kaciim Sithaw loe Paran mae nui hoiah angzoh. (Selah) A lensawkhaih mah vannawk to khuk, long loe anih pakoehhaih hoiah koi.
God from Teman doth come, The Holy One from mount Paran. (Pause) Covered the heavens hath His majesty, And His praise hath filled the earth.
4 Anih ih aanghaih loe ni baktiah oh, takiinawk loe a ban hoiah tacawt o: kanghawk a thacakhaih loe a ban thungah oh.
And the brightness is as the light, He hath rays out of His hand, And there — the hiding of His strength.
5 A hmaa ah kasae nathaih to caeh moe, hmai kangqong nathaih mah a caehhaih to pazui.
Before Him goeth pestilence, And a burning flame goeth forth at His feet.
6 Anih loe angdoet moe, long to a tah; a khet moe, prae kaminawk to tasoehsak: dungzan ah kacak maenawk loe koih o phaeng moe, kacak maesomnawk doeh tanimh o: a caehhaih loklamnawk loe dungzan khoek to cak.
He hath stood, and He measureth earth, He hath seen, and He shaketh off nations, And scatter themselves do mountains of antiquity, Bowed have the hills of old, The ways of old [are] His.
7 Pacaekthlaekhaih hoi Kushan ih imnawk to ka hnuk; Midian prae pakaahaih kahni loe ang sih vak boeh.
Under sorrow I have seen tents of Cushan, Tremble do curtains of the land of Midian.
8 Aw Angraeng, tuipuinawk nuiah palung nang hoe ai maw? Tuipuinawk nuiah palung na phui maw? Nangmah ih hrangnawk to nang thueng moe, pahlonghaih hrang lakoknawk to nang thueng naah, tuipui nuiah palung na phui maw?
Against rivers hath Jehovah been wroth? Against rivers [is] Thine anger? Against the sea [is] Thy wrath? For Thou dost ride on Thy horses — Thy chariots of salvation?
9 Na lok baktih, acaengnawk lokkamhaih baktih toengah, nangmah ih kalii to na suek coek boeh. (Selah) Tuipuinawk to long hoiah na tacawtsak.
Utterly naked Thou dost make Thy bow, Sworn are the tribes — saying, (Pause) [With] rivers Thou dost cleave the earth.
10 Maenawk mah nang ang hnuk o naah, tasoeh o; tui loe long moe, laemh boih boeh: kathuk tuipui loe hangh moe, a ban to payangh tahang.
Seen thee — pained are mountains, An inundation of waters hath passed over, Given forth hath the deep its voice, High its hands it hath lifted up.
11 Nang ih kampha kalii hoi kampha tayae to takhawh naah, ni hoi khrah mataeng doeh a ohhaih ahmuen ah angdoet hoi sut.
Sun — moon — hath stood — a habitation, At the light thine arrows go on, At the brightness, the glittering of thy spear.
12 Palungphuihaih hoiah long pum ah na caeh moe, palungphuihaih hoiah Sithaw panoek ai kaminawk to na tit.
In indignation Thou dost tread earth, In anger Thou dost thresh nations.
13 Nangmah ih kaminawk to pahlong moe, moithawk na nok ih kaminawk to pahlong hanah na caeh: Sethaih sah imthung takoh lu koek to nganbawh kana na paek moe, anih to tahnong hoi khok khoek to nam tuengsak. (Selah)
Thou hast gone forth for the salvation of Thy people, For salvation with Thine anointed, Thou hast smitten the head of the house of the wicked, Laying bare the foundation unto the neck. (Pause)
14 Angmah ih kalii hoiah avang thungah kaom kaminawk zaehoikung to lu ah na thunh: nihcae loe kai amrosak hanah kamhae takhi baktiah ang zoh o; nihcae anghoehaih loe amtang kaminawk tamquta hoi amrosak han ih ni oh.
Thou hast pierced with his staves the head of his leaders, They are tempestuous to scatter me, Their exultation [is] as to consume the poor in secret.
15 Nang loe nangmah ih hrangnawk hoiah tuipui maeto pacoeng maeto bangah na caeh moe, tuiphu to nang thawksak.
Thou hast proceeded through the sea with Thy horses — the clay of many waters.
16 Ka thaih naah ka takpum to tasoeh; a lok pongah ka pahninawk loe angtawt o; raihaih niah kang hak thai hanah, ka huhnawk loe hmawnh moe, ka khoknawk doeh tasoeh o boeh. Kaminawk khaeah anih angzoh naah, angmah ih misatuh kaminawk mah anih to tuh o tih.
I have heard, and my belly trembleth, At the noise have my lips quivered, Rottenness doth come into my bones, And in my place I do tremble, That I rest for a day of distress, At the coming up of the people, he overcometh it.
17 Thaiduet kung hoi misur kung athai ai cadoeh; Olive thaih athai ai moe, lawk ah cang tacawt ai cadoeh; tuu khongkha thungah tuu om ai moe, moi pacahhaih imthung ah moinawk om o ai cadoeh,
Though the fig-tree doth not flourish, And there is no produce among vines, Failed hath the work of the olive, And fields have not yielded food, Cut off from the fold hath been the flock, And there is no herd in the stalls.
18 kai loe Angraeng ah kang hoe toengtoeng han, pahlonghaih Sithaw ah kang hoe toengtoeng han.
Yet I, in Jehovah I exult, I do joy in the God of my salvation.
19 Angraeng Sithaw loe ka thacakhaih ah oh; anih mah ka khok hae tasuk ih khok baktiah na sah pae ueloe, kaimah ih maesang ahmuennawk ah na caehsak tih. Aqui pop katoeng hoi laasah zaehoikungnawk han ih ni.
Jehovah the Lord [is] my strength, And He doth make my feet like hinds, And on my high-places causeth me to tread. To the overseer with my stringed instruments!
