Habakkuk 3
1 A Prayer of Habakkuk the Prophet on Behalf of Those Who Are Ignorant.
Inilah doa Nabi Habakuk:
2 Lord, I heard what has been said about you, and I was afraid. Lord, your work, in the midst of years, revive it. In the midst of years, you will make it known. When you have become angry, you will remember mercy.
Ya TUHAN, kudengar tentang perbuatan-Mu, maka rasa khidmat memenuhi hatiku. Kiranya perbuatan besar itu Kauulangi dan Kaunyatakan di zaman kami ini. Hendaknya kami Kaukasihani walaupun Engkau panas hati.
3 God will come from the south, and the Holy One from mount Pharan. His glory has covered the heavens, and the earth is full of his praise.
Engkau Allah Yang Mahasuci datang dari Teman, Engkau datang dari pegunungan Paran. Langit diliputi keagungan-Mu; bumi penuh dengan pujian bagi-Mu.
4 His brightness shall be like the light; horns are in his hands. There, his strength has been hidden.
Kaudatang dengan cahaya cemerlang, dari tangan-Mu keluar sinar gemilang, di situlah kuasa-Mu Kausembunyikan.
5 Death will go forth before his face. And the devil shall depart before his feet.
Kausuruh penyakit berjalan di depan-Mu dan maut ikut di belakang-Mu.
6 He stood, and measured the earth. He looked, and dissolved the Gentiles. And the mountains of ages past have been shattered. The hills of the world became curved by the journeys of his eternity.
Jika Engkau berhenti, bumi bergetar; jika Engkau memandang, bangsa-bangsa gempar. Gunung-gunung yang abadi terbelah-belah; bukit-bukit yang kekal pun merendah, di bukit-bukit itulah Engkau berjalan sejak zaman purba.
7 I saw the tents of Ethiopia for their iniquity; the tent-skins of the land of Midian will be thrown into confusion.
Kulihat rakyat Kusyan ditimpa ketakutan, dan orang Midian gemetaran.
8 Could you have been angry with the rivers, Lord? Or was your fury within the rivers, or your indignation in the sea? He will ascend upon your horses, and your four-horse chariots are salvation.
Ya TUHAN, karena lautkah Engkau naik darah? Sungai-sungaikah yang membuat Engkau marah? Kautunggangi awan sebagai kuda dan kereta perang, ketika umat-Mu Kauberi kemenangan.
9 Being stirred up, you will take up your bow, the oaths you have spoken to the tribes. You will split apart the Rivers of the earth.
Busur-Mu sudah Kausediakan, panah-Mu siap untuk dilepaskan. Lalu bumi Kaubelah menjadi sungai-sungai.
10 They saw you, and the mountains grieved. The great body of waters crossed over. The abyss uttered its voice. The pinnacle lifted up its hands.
Melihat Engkau, gunung-gunung berguncang dari langit turun hujan seperti tertuang. Air di bawah tanah gemuruh suaranya, ombaknya gulung-gemulung dan bergelora.
11 The sun and the moon have stood firm in their dwelling place; with the light of your arrows, they shall go forth in the splendor of your flashing spear.
Cahaya panah-panah-Mu melaju cepat, tombak-Mu kemilau berkilat-kilat, maka berhentilah matahari dan bulan di tempat.
12 With a roar, you will trample the earth. In your fury, you will cause the nations to be stupefied.
Dengan geram Engkau menjelajahi bumi; bangsa-bangsa Kauinjak-injak dengan panas hati.
13 You have gone forth for the salvation of your people, for salvation with your Christ. You struck the head of the house of the impious. You have laid bare his foundation all the way to the neck.
Engkau melangkah maju untuk membebaskan umat-Mu dan untuk menyelamatkan raja pilihan-Mu. Kaupukul jatuh pemimpin orang durjana, Kausapu habis semua pengikutnya.
14 You have cursed his scepters, the head of his warriors, those who approached like a whirlwind so as to scatter me. Their exultation was like one who devours the poor in secret.
Panah-panah-Mu menembus pemimpin pasukan lawan waktu tentaranya datang sekuat topan, agar kami diceraiberaikan. Mereka tertawa dengan senang seperti orang yang dengan diam-diam menindas orang yang berkekurangan.
15 You made a way in the sea for your horses, in the mud of great waters.
Dengan kuda-Mu Kauinjak-injak samudera dan lautan yang putih berbusa.
16 I heard, and my stomach became troubled. My lips trembled at the voice. Let decay enter into my bones and gush forth from within me. Then I may rest in the day of tribulation, so that I may ascend to our people well-prepared.
Mendengar itu, hatiku gentar dan bibirku bergetar. Aku menjadi lemah tanpa kekuatan, kakiku tersandung, di mana pun aku berjalan. Aku akan menunggu dengan tenang hukuman Allah atas para penyerang.
17 For the fig tree will not flower, and there will be no bud on the vines. The labor of the olive tree will be misleading, and the farmland will produce no food. The sheep will be cut off from the sheepfold, and there will be no herd at the manger.
Meskipun pohon ara tak ada buahnya dan pohon anggur tak ada anggurnya, biarpun panen zaitun menemui kegagalan dan hasil gandum di ladang mengecewakan, walaupun domba-domba mati semua dan kandang ternak tiada isinya,
18 But I will rejoice in the Lord; and I will exult in God my Jesus.
aku akan gembira selalu, sebab Engkau TUHAN Allah penyelamatku.
19 The Lord God is my strength. And he will set my feet like those of the stag. And he, the victor, will lead me beyond my high places while singing psalms.
Engkau memberi aku kekuatan seperti kaki rusa, kakiku Kaukokohkan. Engkau membimbing aku supaya aman waktu berjalan di pegunungan.
