Ambacum 3
1 A PRAYER OF THE PROPHET AMBACUM, WITH A SONG.
| תְּפִלָּ֖ה לַחֲבַקּ֣וּק הַנָּבִ֑יא עַ֖ל שִׁגְיֹנֹֽות׃ |
2 O Lord, I have heard your report, and was afraid: I considered your works, and was amazed: you shall be known between the two living creatures, you shall be acknowledged when the years draw near; you shall be manifested when the time is come; when my soul is troubled, you will in wrath remember mercy.
| יְהוָ֗ה שָׁמַ֣עְתִּי שִׁמְעֲךָ֮ יָרֵאתִי֒ יְהוָ֗ה פָּֽעָלְךָ֙ בְּקֶ֤רֶב שָׁנִים֙ חַיֵּ֔יהוּ בְּקֶ֥רֶב שָׁנִ֖ים תֹּודִ֑יעַ בְּרֹ֖גֶז רַחֵ֥ם תִּזְכֹּֽור׃ |
3 God shall come from Thaeman, and the Holy One from the dark shady mount Pharan. (Pause)
| אֱלֹ֙והַ֙ מִתֵּימָ֣ן יָבֹ֔וא וְקָדֹ֥ושׁ מֵֽהַר־פָּארָ֖ן סֶ֑לָה כִּסָּ֤ה שָׁמַ֙יִם֙ הֹודֹ֔ו וּתְהִלָּתֹ֖ו מָלְאָ֥ה הָאָֽרֶץ׃ |
4 His excellence covered the heavens, and the earth was full of his praise. And his brightness shall be as light; [there were] horns in his hands, and he caused a mighty love of his strength.
| וְנֹ֙גַהּ֙ כָּאֹ֣ור תִּֽהְיֶ֔ה קַרְנַ֥יִם מִיָּדֹ֖ו לֹ֑ו וְשָׁ֖ם חֶבְיֹ֥ון עֻזֹּֽה׃ |
5 Before his face shall go a report, and it shall go forth into the plains,
| לְפָנָ֖יו יֵ֣לֶךְ דָּ֑בֶר וְיֵצֵ֥א רֶ֖שֶׁף לְרַגְלָֽיו׃ |
6 the earth stood at his feet and trembled: he saw, and the nations melted away: the mountains were violently burst through, the everlasting hills melted at his everlasting going forth.
| עָמַ֣ד ׀ וַיְמֹ֣דֶד אֶ֗רֶץ רָאָה֙ וַיַּתֵּ֣ר גֹּויִ֔ם וַיִּתְפֹּֽצְצוּ֙ הַרְרֵי־עַ֔ד שַׁח֖וּ גִּבְעֹ֣ות עֹולָ֑ם הֲלִיכֹ֥ות עֹולָ֖ם לֹֽו׃ |
7 Because of troubles I looked upon the tents of the Ethiopians: the tabernacles also of the land of Madiam shall be dismayed.
| תַּ֣חַת אָ֔וֶן רָאִ֖יתִי אָהֳלֵ֣י כוּשָׁ֑ן יִרְגְּז֕וּן יְרִיעֹ֖ות אֶ֥רֶץ מִדְיָֽן׃ ס |
8 Was you angry, O Lord, with the rivers? or [was] your wrath against the rivers, or your anger against the sea? for you will mount on your horses, and your chariots are salvation.
| הֲבִנְהָרִים֙ חָרָ֣ה יְהוָ֔ה אִ֤ם בַּנְּהָרִים֙ אַפֶּ֔ךָ אִם־בַּיָּ֖ם עֶבְרָתֶ֑ךָ כִּ֤י תִרְכַּב֙ עַל־סוּסֶ֔יךָ מַרְכְּבֹתֶ֖יךָ יְשׁוּעָֽה׃ |
9 Surely you did bend they bow at scepters, says the Lord. (Pause) The land of rivers shall be torn asunder.
| עֶרְיָ֤ה תֵעֹור֙ קַשְׁתֶּ֔ךָ שְׁבֻעֹ֥ות מַטֹּ֖ות אֹ֣מֶר סֶ֑לָה נְהָרֹ֖ות תְּבַקַּע־אָֽרֶץ׃ |
10 The nations shall see you and be in pain, [as you do] divide the moving waters: the deep uttered her voice, and raised her form on high.
| רָא֤וּךָ יָחִ֙ילוּ֙ הָרִ֔ים זֶ֥רֶם מַ֖יִם עָבָ֑ר נָתַ֤ן תְּהֹום֙ קֹולֹ֔ו רֹ֖ום יָדֵ֥יהוּ נָשָֽׂא׃ |
11 The sun was exalted, and the moon stood still in her course: your darts shall go forth at the light, at the brightness of the gleaming of your arms.
| שֶׁ֥מֶשׁ יָרֵ֖חַ עָ֣מַד זְבֻ֑לָה לְאֹ֤ור חִצֶּ֙יךָ֙ יְהַלֵּ֔כוּ לְנֹ֖גַהּ בְּרַ֥ק חֲנִיתֶֽךָ׃ |
12 You will bring low the land with threatening, and in wrath you will break down the nations.
| בְּזַ֖עַם תִּצְעַד־אָ֑רֶץ בְּאַ֖ף תָּד֥וּשׁ גֹּויִֽם׃ |
13 You went forth for the salvation of your people, to save your anointed: you shall bring death on the heads of transgressors; you has brought bands upon [their] neck. (Pause)
| יָצָ֙אתָ֙ לְיֵ֣שַׁע עַמֶּ֔ךָ לְיֵ֖שַׁע אֶת־מְשִׁיחֶ֑ךָ מָחַ֤צְתָּ רֹּאשׁ֙ מִבֵּ֣ית רָשָׁ֔ע עָרֹ֛ות יְסֹ֥וד עַד־צַוָּ֖אר סֶֽלָה׃ פ |
14 You did cut asunder the heads of princes with amazement, they shall tremble in it; they shall burst their bridles, [they shall be] as a poor man devouring in secret.
| נָקַ֤בְתָּ בְמַטָּיו֙ רֹ֣אשׁ פְּרָזֹו (פְּרָזָ֔יו) יִסְעֲר֖וּ לַהֲפִיצֵ֑נִי עֲלִ֣יצֻתָ֔ם כְּמֹו־לֶאֱכֹ֥ל עָנִ֖י בַּמִּסְתָּֽר׃ |
15 And you do cause your horses to enter the sea, disturbing much water.
| דָּרַ֥כְתָּ בַיָּ֖ם סוּסֶ֑יךָ חֹ֖מֶר מַ֥יִם רַבִּֽים׃ |
16 I watched, and my belly trembled at the sound of the prayer of my lips, and trembling entered into my bones, and my frame was troubled within me; I will rest in the day of affliction, from going up to the people of my sojourning.
| שָׁמַ֣עְתִּי ׀ וַתִּרְגַּ֣ז בִּטְנִ֗י לְקֹול֙ צָלֲל֣וּ שְׂפָתַ֔י יָבֹ֥וא רָקָ֛ב בַּעֲצָמַ֖י וְתַחְתַּ֣י אֶרְגָּ֑ז אֲשֶׁ֤ר אָנ֙וּחַ֙ לְיֹ֣ום צָרָ֔ה לַעֲלֹ֖ות לְעַ֥ם יְגוּדֶֽנּוּ׃ |
17 For [though] the fig tree shall bear no fruit, and there shall be no produce on the vines; the labor of the olive shall fail, and the fields shall produce no food: the sheep have failed from the pasture, and there are no oxen at the cribs;
| כִּֽי־תְאֵנָ֣ה לֹֽא־תִפְרָ֗ח וְאֵ֤ין יְבוּל֙ בַּגְּפָנִ֔ים כִּחֵשׁ֙ מַעֲשֵׂה־זַ֔יִת וּשְׁדֵמֹ֖ות לֹא־עָ֣שָׂה אֹ֑כֶל גָּזַ֤ר מִמִּכְלָה֙ צֹ֔אן וְאֵ֥ין בָּקָ֖ר בָּרְפָתִֽים׃ |
18 yet I will exult in the Lord, I will joy in God my Saviour.
| וַאֲנִ֖י בַּיהוָ֣ה אֶעְלֹ֑וזָה אָגִ֖ילָה בֵּאלֹהֵ֥י יִשְׁעִֽי׃ |
19 The Lord God is my strength, and he will perfectly strengthen my feet; he mounts me upon high places, that I may conquer by his song.
| יְהוִ֤ה אֲדֹנָי֙ חֵילִ֔י וַיָּ֤שֶׂם רַגְלַי֙ כָּֽאַיָּלֹ֔ות וְעַ֥ל בָּמֹותַ֖י יַדְרִכֵ֑נִי לַמְנַצֵּ֖חַ בִּנְגִינֹותָֽי׃ |
