< Ambacum 1 >
1 The burden which the prophet Ambacum saw.
Saƙon da annabi Habakkuk ya karɓa.
2 How long, O Lord, shall I cry out, and thou wilt not hearken? [how long] shall I cry out to thee being injured, and thou wilt not save?
Har yaushe, ya Ubangiji, zan yi kukan neman taimako, amma ka ƙi ji? Ina kuka a gare ka saboda zalunci amma ba ka ce ufam ba.
3 Wherefore hast thou shown me troubles and griefs to look upon, misery and ungodliness? judgment is before me, and the judge receives a reward.
Me ya sa ka bari ina ta kallon rashin gaskiya? Me ya sa kake barin abin da ba daidai ba? Hallaka da tashin hankali suna a gabana; ga rashin jituwa da faɗa ko’ina.
4 Therefore the law is frustrated, and judgment proceeds not effectually, for the ungodly [man] prevails over the just; therefore perverse judgment will proceed.
Saboda haka ba a bin doka, shari’a kuma ba ta aiki. Mugaye sun kewaye masu adalci don a hana gaskiya tă yi aiki.
5 Behold, ye despisers, and look, and wonder marvelously, and vanish: for I work a work in your days, which ye will in no wise believe, though a man declare [it to you].
“Ka dubi al’ummai, ka gani, ka sha mamaki. Ga shi zan yi wani abu a kwanakinka, wanda ko ma an faɗa maka ba za ka gaskata ba.
6 Wherefore, behold, I stir up the Chaldeans, the bitter and hasty nation, that walks upon the breadth of the earth, to inherit tabernacles not his own.
Zan tā da Babiloniyawa, waɗannan marasa hankali da kuma marasa tausayi; masu gajeren haƙuri, waɗanda suke ratsa ko’ina a duniya don su ƙwace wuraren zaman da ba nasu ba.
7 He is terrible and famous; his judgment shall proceed of himself, and his dignity shall come out of himself.
Suna da bantsoro da firgitarwa; dokoki da ƙa’idodinsu ne kawai suka sani.
8 And his horses shall bound [more swiftly] than leopards, and [they are] fiercer than the wolves of Arabia: and his horsemen shall ride forth, and shall rush from far; and they shall fly as an eagle hasting to eat.
Dawakansu sun fi damisoshi sauri, sun fi kyarketan yamma zafin rai. Mahayansu suna zuwa a guje; mahayansu daga nesa suka fito. Suna firiya kamar ungulu mai sauka da gaggawa don yă ci mushe;
9 Destruction shall come upon ungodly men, resisting with their adverse front, and he shall gather the captivity as the sand.
duk sukan zo da nufin tā-da-na-zaune-tsaye. Ana jin tsoronsu tun ma kafin su iso suna tattara bayi kamar yashi.
10 And he shall be at his ease with kings, and princes are his toys, and he shall mock at every strong-hold, and shall cast a mound, and take possession of it.
Sukan yi wa sarakuna ba’a su kuma rena masu mulki. Sukan yi wa dukan birane masu mafaka dariya; sukan tara ƙasa su hau, su cinye abokan gābansu da yaƙi.
11 Then shall he change his spirit, and he shall pass through, and make an atonement, [saying], This strength [belongs] to my god.
Sa’an nan su wuce da sauri kamar iska, mutane ne masu laifi, waɗanda ƙarfinsu shi ne allahnsu.”
12 [Art] not thou from the beginning, O Lord God, my Holy One? and surely we shall not die. O Lord, thou hast established it for judgment, and he has formed me to chasten [with] his correction.
Ya Ubangiji, ba tun fil azal kake ba? Ya Allahna, Mai Tsarkina, ba za mu mutu ba. Ya Ubangiji ka sanya su su tabbatar da hukunci; Ya Dutse, ka naɗa su don su yi hukunci.
13 [His] eye is too pure to behold evil [doings], and to look upon grievous afflictions: wherefore dost thou look upon despisers? wilt thou be silent when the ungodly swallows up the just?
Idanunka masu tsarki ne da suka fi gaban duban mugunta; ba ka amince da abin da ke ba daidai ba. To, don me ka ƙyale munafukai suna cin karensu ba babbaka? Me ya sa kake shiru sa’ad da mugaye suke haɗiye adalai da suka fi su adalci?
14 And wilt thou make men as the fishes of the sea, and as the reptiles which have no guide?
Ka mai da maza kamar kifin teku, kamar halittun tekun da ba su da shugaba.
15 He has brought up destruction with a hook, and drawn one with a casting net, and caught another in his drags: therefore shall his heart rejoice and be glad.
Mugu abokin gāba yakan kama su duka da ƙugiya, yă jawo su waje da abin kamun kifinsa, yă tattara su cikin ragarsa, ta haka yakan yi murna da farin ciki.
16 Therefore will he sacrifice to his drag, and burn incense to his casting-net, because by them he has made his portion fat, and his meats choice.
Saboda haka yakan yi hadaya wa abin kamun kifinsa yă kuma ƙona turare wa ragarsa, domin ta wurin abin kamun kifinsa ne yake yin rayuwar jin daɗi yă kuma zaɓi irin abincin da yake so.
17 Therefore will he cast his net, and will not spare to slay the nations continually.
Zai ci gaba da juye abin kamun kifinsu ke nan, suna hallaka al’ummai ba tausayi?
