Habakkuk 3
1 A prayer of Habakkuk, the prophet, set to victorious music.
| תְּפִלָּ֖ה לַחֲבַקּ֣וּק הַנָּבִ֑יא עַ֖ל שִׁגְיֹנֹֽות׃ |
2 LORD, I have heard of your fame. I stand in awe of your deeds, LORD. Renew your work in the midst of the years. In the midst of the years make it known. In wrath, you remember mercy.
| יְהוָ֗ה שָׁמַ֣עְתִּי שִׁמְעֲךָ֮ יָרֵאתִי֒ יְהוָ֗ה פָּֽעָלְךָ֙ בְּקֶ֤רֶב שָׁנִים֙ חַיֵּ֔יהוּ בְּקֶ֥רֶב שָׁנִ֖ים תֹּודִ֑יעַ בְּרֹ֖גֶז רַחֵ֥ם תִּזְכֹּֽור׃ |
3 God came from Teman, the Holy One from Mount Paran. (Selah) His glory covered the heavens, and his praise filled the earth.
| אֱלֹ֙והַ֙ מִתֵּימָ֣ן יָבֹ֔וא וְקָדֹ֥ושׁ מֵֽהַר־פָּארָ֖ן סֶ֑לָה כִּסָּ֤ה שָׁמַ֙יִם֙ הֹודֹ֔ו וּתְהִלָּתֹ֖ו מָלְאָ֥ה הָאָֽרֶץ׃ |
4 His splendor is like the sunrise. Rays shine from his hand, where his power is hidden.
| וְנֹ֙גַהּ֙ כָּאֹ֣ור תִּֽהְיֶ֔ה קַרְנַ֥יִם מִיָּדֹ֖ו לֹ֑ו וְשָׁ֖ם חֶבְיֹ֥ון עֻזֹּֽה׃ |
5 Plague went before him, and pestilence followed his feet.
| לְפָנָ֖יו יֵ֣לֶךְ דָּ֑בֶר וְיֵצֵ֥א רֶ֖שֶׁף לְרַגְלָֽיו׃ |
6 He stood, and shook the earth. He looked, and made the nations tremble. The ancient mountains were crumbled. The age-old hills collapsed. His ways are eternal.
| עָמַ֣ד ׀ וַיְמֹ֣דֶד אֶ֗רֶץ רָאָה֙ וַיַּתֵּ֣ר גֹּויִ֔ם וַיִּתְפֹּֽצְצוּ֙ הַרְרֵי־עַ֔ד שַׁח֖וּ גִּבְעֹ֣ות עֹולָ֑ם הֲלִיכֹ֥ות עֹולָ֖ם לֹֽו׃ |
7 I saw the tents of Cushan in affliction. The dwellings of the land of Midian trembled.
| תַּ֣חַת אָ֔וֶן רָאִ֖יתִי אָהֳלֵ֣י כוּשָׁ֑ן יִרְגְּז֕וּן יְרִיעֹ֖ות אֶ֥רֶץ מִדְיָֽן׃ ס |
8 Was the LORD displeased with the rivers? Was your anger against the rivers, or your wrath against the sea, that you rode on your horses, on your chariots of salvation?
| הֲבִנְהָרִים֙ חָרָ֣ה יְהוָ֔ה אִ֤ם בַּנְּהָרִים֙ אַפֶּ֔ךָ אִם־בַּיָּ֖ם עֶבְרָתֶ֑ךָ כִּ֤י תִרְכַּב֙ עַל־סוּסֶ֔יךָ מַרְכְּבֹתֶ֖יךָ יְשׁוּעָֽה׃ |
9 You uncovered your bow. You called for your sworn arrows. (Selah) You split the earth with rivers.
| עֶרְיָ֤ה תֵעֹור֙ קַשְׁתֶּ֔ךָ שְׁבֻעֹ֥ות מַטֹּ֖ות אֹ֣מֶר סֶ֑לָה נְהָרֹ֖ות תְּבַקַּע־אָֽרֶץ׃ |
10 The mountains saw you, and were afraid. The storm of waters passed by. The deep roared and lifted up its hands on high.
| רָא֤וּךָ יָחִ֙ילוּ֙ הָרִ֔ים זֶ֥רֶם מַ֖יִם עָבָ֑ר נָתַ֤ן תְּהֹום֙ קֹולֹ֔ו רֹ֖ום יָדֵ֥יהוּ נָשָֽׂא׃ |
11 The sun and moon stood still in the sky, at the light of your arrows as they went, at the shining of your glittering spear.
| שֶׁ֥מֶשׁ יָרֵ֖חַ עָ֣מַד זְבֻ֑לָה לְאֹ֤ור חִצֶּ֙יךָ֙ יְהַלֵּ֔כוּ לְנֹ֖גַהּ בְּרַ֥ק חֲנִיתֶֽךָ׃ |
12 You marched through the land in wrath. You threshed the nations in anger.
| בְּזַ֖עַם תִּצְעַד־אָ֑רֶץ בְּאַ֖ף תָּד֥וּשׁ גֹּויִֽם׃ |
13 You went forth for the salvation of your people, for the salvation of your anointed. You crushed the head of the land of wickedness. You stripped them head to foot. (Selah)
| יָצָ֙אתָ֙ לְיֵ֣שַׁע עַמֶּ֔ךָ לְיֵ֖שַׁע אֶת־מְשִׁיחֶ֑ךָ מָחַ֤צְתָּ רֹּאשׁ֙ מִבֵּ֣ית רָשָׁ֔ע עָרֹ֛ות יְסֹ֥וד עַד־צַוָּ֖אר סֶֽלָה׃ פ |
14 You pierced the heads of his warriors with their own spears. They came as a whirlwind to scatter me, gloating as if to devour the wretched in secret.
| נָקַ֤בְתָּ בְמַטָּיו֙ רֹ֣אשׁ פְּרָזֹו (פְּרָזָ֔יו) יִסְעֲר֖וּ לַהֲפִיצֵ֑נִי עֲלִ֣יצֻתָ֔ם כְּמֹו־לֶאֱכֹ֥ל עָנִ֖י בַּמִּסְתָּֽר׃ |
15 You trampled the sea with your horses, churning mighty waters.
| דָּרַ֥כְתָּ בַיָּ֖ם סוּסֶ֑יךָ חֹ֖מֶר מַ֥יִם רַבִּֽים׃ |
16 I heard, and my body trembled. My lips quivered at the voice. Rottenness enters into my bones, and I tremble in my place, because I must wait quietly for the day of trouble, for the coming up of the people who invade us.
| שָׁמַ֣עְתִּי ׀ וַתִּרְגַּ֣ז בִּטְנִ֗י לְקֹול֙ צָלֲל֣וּ שְׂפָתַ֔י יָבֹ֥וא רָקָ֛ב בַּעֲצָמַ֖י וְתַחְתַּ֣י אֶרְגָּ֑ז אֲשֶׁ֤ר אָנ֙וּחַ֙ לְיֹ֣ום צָרָ֔ה לַעֲלֹ֖ות לְעַ֥ם יְגוּדֶֽנּוּ׃ |
17 For though the fig tree doesn't flourish, nor fruit be in the vines; the labor of the olive fails, the fields yield no food; the flocks are cut off from the fold, and there is no herd in the stalls:
| כִּֽי־תְאֵנָ֣ה לֹֽא־תִפְרָ֗ח וְאֵ֤ין יְבוּל֙ בַּגְּפָנִ֔ים כִּחֵשׁ֙ מַעֲשֵׂה־זַ֔יִת וּשְׁדֵמֹ֖ות לֹא־עָ֣שָׂה אֹ֑כֶל גָּזַ֤ר מִמִּכְלָה֙ צֹ֔אן וְאֵ֥ין בָּקָ֖ר בָּרְפָתִֽים׃ |
18 yet I will rejoice in the LORD. I will be joyful in the God of my salvation.
| וַאֲנִ֖י בַּיהוָ֣ה אֶעְלֹ֑וזָה אָגִ֖ילָה בֵּאלֹהֵ֥י יִשְׁעִֽי׃ |
19 The LORD is my strength. He makes my feet like deer's feet, and enables me to go in high places. For the music director, on my stringed instruments.
| יְהוִ֤ה אֲדֹנָי֙ חֵילִ֔י וַיָּ֤שֶׂם רַגְלַי֙ כָּֽאַיָּלֹ֔ות וְעַ֥ל בָּמֹותַ֖י יַדְרִכֵ֑נִי לַמְנַצֵּ֖חַ בִּנְגִינֹותָֽי׃ |
