Habakkuk 3
1 Yahweh, I have heard about you; I revere you because of [all the amazing] things that you have done. In our time, do again [some of] those things that you did long ago! Even when you are angry [with us], be merciful [to us]!
Oração do profeta Habacuque, conforme “Siguionote”.
Ó SENHOR, ouvido tenho tua fama; temi, Ó SENHOR, a tua obra; renova-a no meio dos anos; faze-a conhecida no meio dos anos; na ira lembra-te da misericórdia.
3 [In the vision, I saw] God, the Holy One, coming from the Teman [district in Edom]; [and I also saw] him coming from the Paran Hills [in the Sinai area]. His glory filled the sky, and the earth was full of [people who were] praising him.
Deus veio de Temã, o Santo do monte de Parã (Selá) Sua glória cobriu os céus, e a terra se encheu de seu louvor.
4 His glory was like [SIM] a sunrise; rays flashed from his hands where he hides his power.
E houve resplendor como o da luz; raios brilhantes saíam de sua mão; e ali sua força estava escondida.
5 He sent plagues in front of him, and [other] plagues came behind him.
A praga ia adiante dele, e a pestilência seguia seus pés.
6 When he stopped, the earth shook. When he looked at the nations, [all the people] trembled. The hills and mountains that have existed for a very long time [HYP] collapsed and crumbled. Yahweh is the one who exists eternally/forever!
Ele parou, e sacudiu a terra; ele olhou, e abalou as nações; e os montes antigos foram despedaçados, os morros antigos caíram. Seus caminhos são eternos.
7 [In the vision] I saw the [people who live in] tents in the Cushan [region] being afflicted, and the people in the Midian [region] trembling.
Vi as tendas de Cusã em aflição; as cortinas da terra de Midiã tremeram.
8 Yahweh, was it because you were angry with the rivers and streams that you were angry with them? Did the seas cause you to be furious, with the result that you rode through them with horses that were pulling chariots that enabled you to defeat them?
Por acaso o SENHOR se irritou contra os rios? Foi tua ira contra os ribeiros? Foi tua ira contra o mar, quando cavalgaste sobre teus cavalos, e tuas carruagens de vitória?
9 [It was as though] you uncovered your bow, took arrows from your quiver, [and prepared to shoot them]. [Then with lightning] you split open the earth, and streams burst forth.
Teu arco foi descoberto, as flechas foram preparadas pela [tua] palavra (Selá) Fendeste a terra com rios.
10 [It is as though] the mountains saw you [doing that], and they trembled. Floods rushed by; [it was as though] the deep ocean roared and caused its waves to rise up high.
Os montes te viram, e tiveram dores; a inundação das águas passou. O abismo deu sua voz, e levantou suas mãos ao alto.
11 The sun and moon stopped moving in the sky while your [lightning] flashed [past like] a swift arrow, and your glittering spear flashed.
O sol e a lua pararam em suas moradas; à luz de tuas flechas passaram, com o resplendor de tua lança relampejante.
12 Being very angry [DOU], you walked across the earth and trampled the [armies of many] nations.
Com indignação marchaste pela terra, com ira trilhaste as nações.
13 But you [also] went to rescue us, your people, and to save the [king] (Or, [people]) whom you had chosen [MTY]. You struck down the leader [MTY] of those wicked people and stripped off his clothes, from his head to his feet.
Saíste para a salvar o teu povo, para salvar o teu ungido. Feriste o líder da casa do ímpio, descobrindo-o dos pés ao pescoço. (Selá)
14 With his own spear you destroyed the leader of those soldiers who rushed like [SIM] a whirlwind to [attack and] scatter us, thinking that they could conquer us [Israelis] easily.
Perfuraste com suas próprias lanças os líderes de suas tropas, que vieram impetuosamente para me dispersarem. A alegria deles era como a de devorarem os pobres às escondidas.
15 You walked through the sea with your horses [to destroy our enemies], and caused the waves to surge.
Pisaste pelo mar com teus cavalos, pela turbulência de grandes águas.
16 When I saw that vision, my heart pounded and my lips quivered [because I became afraid]. My legs became weak and I shook, [because I was terrified]. But I will wait quietly for the people [of Babylonia], those who invaded our country, to experience disasters!
Quando eu ouvi, meu ventre se perturbou; por causa do ruído meus lábios tremeram; podridão veio em meus ossos, e em meu lugar me perturbei; descansarei até o dia da angústia, quando virá contra o povo que nos ataca.
17 [Therefore, ] even if there are no blossoms on the fig trees, and there are no grapes on the grapevines, and even if there are no olives growing on the olive trees, and there are no crops in the fields, and even if the flocks [of sheep and goats] die in the fields, and there are no cattle in the stalls/barns,
Ainda que a figueira não floresça, nem haja fruto nas vides, e falte o produto da oliveira, os campos não produzam alimento, as ovelhas sejam arrebatadas, e não haja vacas nos currais,
18 I will rejoice because [I know] Yahweh. I will be joyful because Yahweh my God is the one who saves me!
Mesmo assim eu me alegrarei no SENHOR, terei prazer no Deus de minha salvação.
19 Yahweh the Lord is the one who causes me to be strong; he enables me to climb [(safely/without falling)] in the [rocky] mountains, like [SIM] a deer does. (This message is for the choir director: [When this prayer is sung, it is to be accompanied by people playing] stringed instruments.)
DEUS, o Senhor, é minha fortaleza; ele fará meus pés como os das corças, e me fará andar sobre meus lugares altos.(Para o regente, com instrumentos de cordas).
