Habakkuk 3
1 A prayer of Habakkuk the prophet upon Shigionoth.
Inilah doa Nabi Habakuk:
2 O LORD, I have heard your speech, and was afraid: O LORD, revive your work in the midst of the years, in the midst of the years make known; in wrath 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 came from Teman, and the Holy One from mount Paran. (Selah) His glory covered the heavens, and the earth was 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 And his brightness was as the light; he had horns coming out of his hand: and there was the hiding of his power.
Kaudatang dengan cahaya cemerlang, dari tangan-Mu keluar sinar gemilang, di situlah kuasa-Mu Kausembunyikan.
5 Before him went the pestilence, and burning coals went forth at his feet.
Kausuruh penyakit berjalan di depan-Mu dan maut ikut di belakang-Mu.
6 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.
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 Cushan in affliction: and the curtains of the land of Midian did tremble.
Kulihat rakyat Kusyan ditimpa ketakutan, dan orang Midian gemetaran.
8 Was the LORD displeased against the rivers? was your anger against the rivers? was your wrath against the sea, that you did ride upon your horses and your chariots of 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 Your bow was made quite naked, according to the oaths of the tribes, even your word. (Selah) You did cleave the earth with rivers.
Busur-Mu sudah Kausediakan, panah-Mu siap untuk dilepaskan. Lalu bumi Kaubelah menjadi sungai-sungai.
10 The mountains saw you, and they trembled: the overflowing of the water passed by: the deep uttered his voice, and lifted up his hands on high.
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 moon stood still in their habitation: at the light of your arrows they went, and at the shining of your glittering spear.
Cahaya panah-panah-Mu melaju cepat, tombak-Mu kemilau berkilat-kilat, maka berhentilah matahari dan bulan di tempat.
12 You did march through the land in indignation, you did thresh the heathen in anger.
Dengan geram Engkau menjelajahi bumi; bangsa-bangsa Kauinjak-injak dengan panas hati.
13 You went forth for the salvation of your people, even for salvation with your anointed; you wounded the head out of the house of the wicked, by discovering the foundation unto the neck. (Selah)
Engkau melangkah maju untuk membebaskan umat-Mu dan untuk menyelamatkan raja pilihan-Mu. Kaupukul jatuh pemimpin orang durjana, Kausapu habis semua pengikutnya.
14 You did 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.
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 did walk through the sea with your horses, through the heap of great waters.
Dengan kuda-Mu Kauinjak-injak samudera dan lautan yang putih berbusa.
16 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 comes up unto the people, he will invade them with his troops.
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 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 food; the flock shall be cut off from the fold, and there shall be no herd in the stalls:
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 Yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will joy in the God of my salvation.
aku akan gembira selalu, sebab Engkau TUHAN Allah penyelamatku.
19 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.
Engkau memberi aku kekuatan seperti kaki rusa, kakiku Kaukokohkan. Engkau membimbing aku supaya aman waktu berjalan di pegunungan.
