The oracle which he saw Habakkuk the prophet.
2 Yaye Jehova Nyasaye, abiro luongi nyaka karangʼo mondo ikonya to ok iwinji? Koso nyaka karangʼo maywakni kawacho, “Timbe maricho omedore!” To kata kamano ok ires ji?
Until when? O Yahweh have I cried for help and not you will hear I cry out to you violence and not you save.
3 En angʼo momiyo iweya mondo ane timbe maricho? Koso en angʼo momiyo idhil gi timbe maricho? Kethruok kod timbe maricho ochoma pile; lwenje mangʼeny nitie kendo sigu medore.
Why? do you make see me wickedness and mischief do you look at? and devastation and violence [are] to before me and it has been strife and contention it arises.
4 Kuom mano chik ok nyal tiyo, kendo adiera ok nenre. Joma richo olworo joma kare, kuom mano adiera ok nyal betie.

For here I [am] about to raise up the Chaldeans the nation bitter and impetuous which goes to [the] expanses of [the] earth to take possession of dwellings [which] not [belong] to it.

8 Faresegi ringo mapiyo moloyo kwach, kendo giger moloyo guo sudhe e sa ma piny imoree. Faresegi mag lweny lengʼore ka gitingʼo wiyegi malo; joidh faresegi aa kuma bor. Gihuyo ka achuth madwaro kawo chiemo,
And they are swift more than leopards horses its and they are keen more than wolves of [the] evening and they paw [the] ground warhorses its and horsemen its from a distance they come they fly like an eagle making haste to devour.

All of it for violence it comes [the] totality of faces their [is] east-ward and it gathered like sand captive[s].

Then it swept on a wind and it passed on and he is guilty [the one] who strength his [becomes] god his.
12 Yaye Jehova Nyasaye, donge in ema nyaka nene? Yaye, Nyasacha, Nyasaye Maler, ok wanatho. Yaye Jehova Nyasaye, iseyierogi mondo gibednwa jongʼad bura. Yaye Nyasaye ma Lwanda, isewalogi mondo gikel kum.

13 Wengeni ler ma ok nyal ngʼiyo richo, ok inyal bedo mamor gi gima rach. To en angʼo momiyo koro ibedo mamor gi jo-andhoga? Angʼo momiyo ilingʼ alingʼa ka jomaricho, tieko joma kare moloyogi?
[you are too] pure of Eyes for seeing evil and to look to mischief not you are able why? do you look at treacherous [people] are you silent? when swallows up a wicked [person] a [person] righteous more than him.
