Habakuk 3
1 Lemo mane Habakuk janabi olamo e dwond Shigionot ema:
This is a prayer of Habakkuk the prophet, according to Shigionoth:
2 Jehova Nyasaye, asewinjo humbi; achungʼ e nyimi ka an-gi luoro kuom gik misetimo, yaye Jehova Nyasaye. Mad itimgi kendo e kindewa, mi gingʼere e ndalowani; ka in gi mirima to mad ipar ngʼwono.
O LORD, I have heard the report of You; I stand in awe, O LORD, of Your deeds. Revive them in these years; make them known in these years. In Your wrath, remember mercy!
3 Nyasaye nobiro koa Teman, Nyasaye Maler moa e got mar Paran. (Sela) Duongʼne noumo polo, kendo pakne nopongʼo piny.
God came from Teman, and the Holy One from Mount Paran. (Selah) His glory covered the heavens, and His praise filled the earth.
4 Berne ne chalo kawuok chiengʼ; kendo ler ne mil ka wuok e lwete, kama tekone opandie.
His radiance was like the sunlight; rays flashed from His hand, where His power is hidden.
5 Masira mar tuoche notelo e nyime; to midekre noluwe.
Plague went before Him, and fever followed in His steps.
6 Ne ochungʼ kendo noyiengo piny, ne ongʼicho mi ogendini otetni. Gode machon nomukore kendo gode matindo manyaka nene bende nopodho. Yorene osiko manyaka chiengʼ.
He stood and measured the earth; He looked and startled the nations; the ancient mountains crumbled; the perpetual hills collapsed. His ways are everlasting.
7 Ne aneno hemb jo-Kushan ka nigi chandruok, kuonde dak mag jo-Midian nigi kihondko.
I saw the tents of Cushan in distress; the curtains of Midian were trembling.
8 Mirima nomaki gi aore, yaye Jehova Nyasaye? Koso mirima nomaki gi aore matindo? Koso ne ikecho gi nam kane iidho farese, ma en gachi mar loch?
Were You angry at the rivers, O LORD? Was Your wrath against the streams? Did You rage against the sea when You rode on Your horses, on Your chariots of salvation?
9 Isechiko atungʼ mari, kendo iluongo mondo omedi aserni mangʼeny. (Sela) Ipogo piny gi aore,
You brandished Your bow; You called for many arrows. (Selah) You split the earth with rivers.
10 gode ne oneni ma otetni giluoro; oula nomwomo karidore. Kude matut bende mor matek; apaka ne tingʼore malo.
The mountains saw You and quaked; torrents of water swept by. The deep roared with its voice and lifted its hands on high.
11 Wangʼ chiengʼ gi dwe nochungʼ kargi e kor polo ka gineno asernigi mibayo; ka mil polo machalo tongʼ mobaa.
Sun and moon stood still in their places at the flash of Your flying arrows, at the brightness of Your shining spear.
12 E mirimbi ne iwuotho e piny duto, to kuom mirimbi ne inyono ogendini.
You marched across the earth with fury; You threshed the nations in wrath.
13 Ne ibiro mondo ires jogi, mondo iwar ngʼatno mowal. Ne inyono jatend piny richo, ne ilonye duk koa e tiende piny nyaka e wiye. (Sela)
You went forth for the salvation of Your people, to save Your anointed. You crushed the head of the house of the wicked and stripped him from head to toe.
14 Gi tonge owuon isechwoyo wiye, kane jolwenje omonjowa mondo gikewa, ka gin gi ilo ka gima gichiegni tieko joma onge gi nyalo kama ne giponde.
With his own spear You pierced his head, when his warriors stormed out to scatter us, gloating as though ready to secretly devour the weak.
15 To ne inyono nam gi faresegi, ka iduwo pi.
You trampled the sea with Your horses, churning the great waters.
16 Ne awinjo ma chunya noridore, dhoga nomoko kane awinjo kokono; chokena nonyosore kendo tiendena notetni. To kata kamano abiro rito ka ahora ni odiechieng masira mabiro mako oganda ma monjowa chopi.
I heard and trembled within; my lips quivered at the sound. Decay entered my bones; I trembled where I stood. Yet I must wait patiently for the day of distress to come upon the people who invade us.
17 Kata obedo ni yadh ngʼowu ok nyal thiewo bende kata obedo ni onge olemo ewi yadh zeituni, kata obedo ni yadh mzabibu ok nyag olemo bende kata obedo ni puothe ok nyag cham, kendo kata obedo ni rombe orumo e abila mi dhok bende orumo duto e dipo,
Though the fig tree does not bud and no fruit is on the vines, though the olive crop fails and the fields produce no food, though the sheep are cut off from the fold and no cattle are in the stalls,
18 to kata kamano pod abiro bedo gi ilo kuom Jehova Nyasaye, kendo abiro bedo mamor kuom Nyasaye ma Jawarna.
yet I will exult in the LORD; I will rejoice in the God of my salvation!
19 Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto e tekona; en ema omiyo tienda bedo mayot ka tiend mwanda, en ema omiyo awuotho kuonde motingʼore malo. Ne jatend wer. E thuma mar kamba.
GOD the Lord is my strength; He makes my feet like those of a deer; He makes me walk upon the heights!
