哈巴谷書 3
1 哈巴谷的禱詞。調寄「流離之歌。」
A PRAYER of Habakkuk the prophet upon Shigionoth.
2 上主，我聽到了你的報道；上主，我見到你的作為；求你在歲月的過程中，彰顯你的作為，求你在歲月的過程中，宣佈出來! 但願你發怒時，也懷念仁慈。
O Lord, I have heard thy speech, and was afraid: O Lord, revive thy work in the midst of the years, in the midst of the years make known; in wrath remember mercy.
3 天主自特曼而來，聖者由帕蘭山而至(休止)；衪的威嚴遮蓋諸天，衪的榮耀充滿地。
God came from Teman, and the Holy One from mount Paran. (Selah) His glory covered the heavens, and the earth was full of his praise.
4 衪的光輝明輝如日；衪手中射出的光芒，蘊藏著衪的威能。
And his brightness was as the light; he had horns coming out of his hand: and there was the hiding of his power.
5 瘟疾在衪面前開路，熱症隨衪的足後。
Before him went the pestilence, and burning coals went forth at his feet.
6 衪一停立，大地就動搖；衪一注視，萬民就戰慄；太古的山嶽崩裂，久遠的丘陵沉沒；衪自永遠即在其上行走。
He stood, and measured the earth: he beheld, and drove asunder the nations; and the everlasting mountains were scattered, the perpetual hills did bow: his ways are everlasting.
7 我曾見雇商的帳幕恐慌，米德揚的帳幕震勫。
I saw the tents of Cushan in affliction: and the curtains of the land of Midian did tremble.
8 上主! 當你騎著馬，乘著凱旋車時，是否是向河流發怒﹖或是向海洋洩憤﹖
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?
9 你抽出了你的弓弩，囊中裝滿了箭羽(休止)；你劈地成河，
Thy bow was made quite naked, according to the oaths of the tribes, even thy word. (Selah) Thou didst cleave the earth with rivers.
10 叢山見你而戰慄；驟雨由雲中降下，深潚發出巨響，太陽齔了昇起，
The mountains saw thee, and they trembled: the overflowing of the water passed by: the deep uttered his voice, and lifted up his hands on high.
11 月亮停於居所：這是因了你放射箭羽的光芒，你槍矛閃爍的光亮。
The sun and moon stood still in their habitation: at the light of thine arrows they went, and at the shining of thy glittering spear.
12 你懷怒踏遍大地，含恨蹂躝了萬邦。
Thou didst march through the land in indignation, thou didst thresh the heathen in anger.
13 你出征是為了你的百姓，是為了你的受傅者；你折毀了惡人的屋頂，使屋基露出，直到磐石(休止)
Thou wentest forth for the salvation of thy people, even for salvation with thine anointed; thou woundedst the head out of the house of the wicked, by discovering the foundation unto the neck. (Selah)
14 你用箭他戰士的頭，因為他們衝來要驅散我們，且高興的有如在暗中吞食貧民的人。
Thou didst strike through with his staves the head of his villages: they came out as a whirlwind to scatter me: their rejoicing was as to devour the poor secretly.
15 你卻將他的戰馬投入深海，投入多水的沼澤中。
Thou didst walk through the sea with thine horses, through the heap of great waters.
16 我一聽見，我的我的臟腑發抖；對此消息，我的口脣打顫；痲痺侵入 下骨骸，我的步伐在我下面已零亂。我在靜待那因難的日子，因為那日子必要臨於進攻我們的民族身上。
When I heard, my belly trembled; my lips quivered at the voice: rottenness entered into my bones, and I trembled in myself, that I might rest in the day of trouble: when he cometh up unto the people, he will invade them with his troops.
17 縱然無花果樹不發芽，葡萄樹不結實，橄欖樹一無所產，麥田不出產食糧，羊棧內沒有羊，牛欄中沒有牛，
Although the fig tree shall not blossom, neither shall fruit be in the vines; the labour of the olive shall fail, and the fields shall yield no meat; the flock shall be cut off from the fold, and there shall be no herd in the stalls:
18 我仍然喜樂於上主，歡欣於我的救主天主。
Yet I will rejoice in the Lord, I will joy in the God of my salvation.
19 我主上主是我的力量，衪使我的腳有如鹿腳，引我在高處步行。──交於樂官，和以絃樂。
The Lord God is my strength, and he will make my feet like hinds’ feet, and he will make me to walk upon mine high places. To the chief singer on my stringed instruments.
