Habakkuk 3
1 A prayer of Habakkuk the prophet, [set] on shigionoth:
哈巴谷的禱詞。調寄「流離之歌。」
2 O YHWH, I heard your report, I have been afraid, O YHWH, Your work! In midst of years revive it, In the midst of years You make known, In anger You remember mercy.
上主，我聽到了你的報道；上主，我見到你的作為；求你在歲月的過程中，彰顯你的作為，求你在歲月的過程中，宣佈出來! 但願你發怒時，也懷念仁慈。
3 God comes from Teman, The Holy One from Mount Paran. (Pause) His splendor has covered the heavens, And His praise has filled the earth.
天主自特曼而來，聖者由帕蘭山而至(休止)；衪的威嚴遮蓋諸天，衪的榮耀充滿地。
4 And the brightness is as the light, He has rays out of His hand, And there—the hiding of His strength.
衪的光輝明輝如日；衪手中射出的光芒，蘊藏著衪的威能。
5 Before Him goes pestilence, And a burning flame goes forth at His feet.
瘟疾在衪面前開路，熱症隨衪的足後。
6 He has stood, and He measures earth, He has seen, and He shakes off nations, And mountains of antiquity scatter themselves, The hills of old have bowed, The ways of old [are] His.
衪一停立，大地就動搖；衪一注視，萬民就戰慄；太古的山嶽崩裂，久遠的丘陵沉沒；衪自永遠即在其上行走。
7 Under sorrow I have seen tents of Cushan, Curtains of the land of Midian tremble.
我曾見雇商的帳幕恐慌，米德揚的帳幕震勫。
8 Has YHWH been angry against rivers? Against rivers [is] Your anger? [Is] Your wrath against the sea? For You ride on Your horses—Your chariots of salvation.
上主! 當你騎著馬，乘著凱旋車時，是否是向河流發怒﹖或是向海洋洩憤﹖
9 You make Your bow utterly naked, The tribes have sworn, saying, (Pause) You cleave the earth [with] rivers.
你抽出了你的弓弩，囊中裝滿了箭羽(休止)；你劈地成河，
10 Seen You—pained are mountains, An inundation of waters has passed over, The deep has given forth its voice, It has lifted up its hands high.
叢山見你而戰慄；驟雨由雲中降下，深潚發出巨響，太陽齔了昇起，
11 Sun—moon—has stood—a habitation, Your arrows go on at the light, At the brightness, the glittering of Your spear.
月亮停於居所：這是因了你放射箭羽的光芒，你槍矛閃爍的光亮。
12 In indignation You tread earth, In anger You thresh nations.
你懷怒踏遍大地，含恨蹂躝了萬邦。
13 You have gone forth for the salvation of Your people, For salvation with Your Anointed, You have struck the head of the house of the wicked, Laying bare the foundation to the neck. (Pause)
你出征是為了你的百姓，是為了你的受傅者；你折毀了惡人的屋頂，使屋基露出，直到磐石(休止)
14 You have pierced the head of his leaders with his own rods, They are tempestuous to scatter me, Their exultation [is] as to consume the poor in secret.
你用箭他戰士的頭，因為他們衝來要驅散我們，且高興的有如在暗中吞食貧民的人。
15 You have proceeded through the sea with Your horses—the clay of many waters.
你卻將他的戰馬投入深海，投入多水的沼澤中。
16 I have heard, and my belly trembles, At the noise have my lips quivered, Rottenness comes into my bones, And in my place I tremble, That I rest for a day of distress, At the coming up of the people, he overcomes it.
我一聽見，我的我的臟腑發抖；對此消息，我的口脣打顫；痲痺侵入 下骨骸，我的步伐在我下面已零亂。我在靜待那因難的日子，因為那日子必要臨於進攻我們的民族身上。
17 Though the fig tree does not flourish, And there is no produce among vines, The work of the olive has failed, And fields have not yielded food, The flock has been cut off from the fold, And there is no herd in the stalls,
縱然無花果樹不發芽，葡萄樹不結實，橄欖樹一無所產，麥田不出產食糧，羊棧內沒有羊，牛欄中沒有牛，
18 Yet I, in YHWH I exult, I am joyful in the God of my salvation.
我仍然喜樂於上主，歡欣於我的救主天主。
19 YHWH the Lord [is] my strength, And He makes my feet like does, And causes me to tread on my high-places. To the overseer with my stringed instruments!
我主上主是我的力量，衪使我的腳有如鹿腳，引我在高處步行。──交於樂官，和以絃樂。
