< Habakkuk 3 >
1 A prayer of Habakkuk the prophet on shiggionoth.
Sala ya nabii Habakuki iliyoimbwa kwa shigionothi.
2 O Yahweh I have heard report your I fear O Yahweh work your in [the] midst of years restore it in [the] midst of years you will make [it] known in wrath to have compassion you will remember.
Bwana, nimezisikia sifa zako; nami naogopa kwa matendo yako, Ee Bwana. Fufua kazi yako katikati ya miaka, katikati ya miaka tangaza habari yako; katika ghadhabu kumbuka rehema.
3 God from Teman he comes and [the] holy [one] from [the] mountain of Paran (Selah) it has covered [the] heavens splendor his and praise his it has filled the earth.
Mungu alitoka Temani, yeye Aliye Mtakatifu kutoka Mlima Parani. Utukufu wake ulifunika mbingu, na sifa zake zikaifunika dunia.
4 And brightness like the light it is two horns from hand his [belong] to him and [is] there [the] hiding place of (strength his. *Q(K)*)
Mngʼao wake ulikuwa kama jua lichomozalo; mionzi ilimulika kutoka mkononi mwake, ambako nguvu zake zilifichwa.
5 Before him it goes pestilence so it may go out lightning to feet his.
Tauni ilimtangulia; maradhi ya kuambukiza yalifuata nyayo zake.
6 He stood - and he shook [the] earth he has seen and he has made jump nations and they have been shattered mountains of antiquity they have bowed down hills of antiquity ways of antiquity [belong] to him.
Alisimama, akaitikisa dunia; alitazama, na kuyafanya mataifa yatetemeke. Milima ya zamani iligeuka mavumbi na vilima vilivyozeeka vikaanguka. Njia zake ni za milele.
7 Under trouble I have seen [the] tents of Cushan they tremble! [the] tent curtains of [the] land of Midian.
Niliona watu wa Kushani katika dhiki, na makazi ya Midiani katika maumivu makali.
8 ¿ On rivers has it burned O Yahweh or? on the rivers [is] anger your or? on the sea [is] fury your that you will ride on horses your chariots your salvation.
Ee Bwana, uliikasirikia mito? Je, ghadhabu yako ilikuwa dhidi ya vijito? Je, ulighadhibikia bahari ulipoendesha farasi wako na magari yako ya ushindi?
9 Bareness it is made bare bow your oaths of arrows a word (Selah) rivers you split open [the] earth.
Uliufunua upinde wako na kuita mishale mingi. Uliigawa dunia kwa mito;
10 They have seen you they writhe mountains a downpour of water it has passed over it has given forth [the] deep voice its height hands its it has lifted.
milima ilikuona ikatetemeka. Mafuriko ya maji yakapita huko; vilindi vilinguruma na kuinua mawimbi yake juu.
11 Sun moon it has stood still a lofty abode to light arrows your they go to brightness [the] lightning flash of spear your.
Jua na mwezi vilisimama kimya mbinguni katika mngʼao wa mishale yako inayoruka, na katika mngʼao wa mkuki wako umeremetao.
12 In indignation you march [the] earth in anger you trample down nations.
Kwa ghadhabu ulipita juu ya dunia, na katika hasira ulikanyaga mataifa.
13 You have gone out for [the] salvation of people your for [the] salvation anointed your you have shattered [the] chief from [the] house of [the] wicked you have laid bare foundation[s] to neck (Selah)
Ulikuja kuwaokoa watu wako, kumwokoa uliyemtia mafuta. Ulimponda kiongozi wa nchi ya uovu, ukamvua toka kichwani hadi wayo.
14 You pierced with own arrows his [the] head of (warriors his *Q(K)*) they storm to scatter me exultation their [was] like to devour [the] afflicted in the secret place.
Kwa mkuki wake mwenyewe ulitoboa kichwa chake wakati mashujaa wake walifurika nje kwa kishindo kututawanya, wakifurahi kama walio karibu kutafuna wale wanyonge waliokuwa mafichoni.
15 You trod on the sea horses your a heap of waters many.
Ulikanyaga bahari kwa farasi wako, ukisukasuka maji makuu.
16 I heard - and it trembled belly my to [the] sound they quivered lips my it came rottenness in bones my and under me I trembled that I will be quiet for [the] day of trouble to come up to [the] people [which] attacks us it.
Nilisikia na moyo wangu ukagonga kwa nguvu, midomo yangu ikatetemeka kwa hofu niliposikia sauti; uchakavu ukanyemelea mifupa yangu, na miguu yangu ikatetemeka. Hata hivyo nitasubiri kwa uvumilivu siku ya maafa kuyajilia mataifa yaliyotuvamia.
17 For [the] fig tree not it buds and there not [is] produce on the vines it fails [the] product of [the] olive tree and fields not it produces food someone cuts off from [the] fold [the] flock and not cattle [is] in the stalls.
Ingawa mtini hauchanui maua na hakuna zabibu juu ya mizabibu, ingawaje mzeituni hauzai, na hata mashamba hayatoi chakula, iwapo hakuna kondoo katika banda, wala ngʼombe katika zizi,
18 And I in Yahweh I will exult I will rejoice in [the] God of salvation my.
hata hivyo nitashangilia katika Bwana, nitamfurahia Mungu Mwokozi wangu.
19 (Yahweh *L(abh)*) [the] Lord [is] strength my and he makes feet my like does and on high places my he makes tread me to the choirmaster with stringed instruments my.
Bwana Mwenyezi ni nguvu yangu; huifanya miguu yangu kama miguu ya ayala, huniwezesha kupita juu ya vilima. Kwa kiongozi wa uimbaji. Kwa vinanda vyangu vya nyuzi.
