Habakkuk 3
1 A prayer of Habakkuk the prophet concerning erring ones:
Libondeli ya Mosakoli Abakuki, na tina na lolenge ya banzembo ya mawa.
2 O Jehovah, I heard thy report, I have been afraid, O Jehovah, Thy work! in midst of years revive it, In the midst of years Thou makest known In anger Thou dost remember mercy.
Oh Yawe, nayokaki sango ya Kombo na Yo! Yawe, nabangaki misala na Yo. Sala yango lisusu na tango na biso! Sala ete eyebana lisusu na tango na biso! Kasi ata soki otomboki ndenge nini, kobosanaka te mawa na Yo mpo na biso.
3 God from Teman doth come, The Holy One from mount Paran. (Pause) Covered the heavens hath His majesty, And His praise hath filled the earth.
Nzambe abimelaki na engumba Temani, Mosantu abimelaki na ngomba Parani. Nkembo na Ye ezipaki likolo, mpe lokumu na Ye etondisaki mabele.
4 And the brightness is as the light, He hath rays out of His hand, And there — the hiding of His strength.
Azalaki kongenga lokola moyi, mpe pole makasi ezalaki kobimela na loboko na Ye, epai wapi nguya na Ye ebombamaka.
5 Before Him goeth pestilence, And a burning flame goeth forth at His feet.
Bokono oyo ebomaka ezalaki kotambola liboso na Ye, mpe pasi makasi ezalaki kolanda matambe na Ye na sima.
6 He hath stood, and He measureth earth, He hath seen, and He shaketh off nations, And scatter themselves do mountains of antiquity, Bowed have the hills of old, The ways of old [are] His.
Tango atelemaki, mabele ekomaki koningana makasi; tango abalolaki elongi na Ye mpo na kotala, bato ya bikolo bakomaki kolenga, bangomba milayi oyo ya kala-kala ebukanaki, mpe bangomba mikuse oyo ya kala-kala ekitaki; kasi banzela na Ye ewumelaka seko na seko.
7 Under sorrow I have seen tents of Cushan, Tremble do curtains of the land of Midian.
Namonaki bandako ya kapo ya Kushani kati na pasi, mpe bandako ya mokili ya Madiani kati na mitungisi.
8 Against rivers hath Jehovah been wroth? Against rivers [is] Thine anger? Against the sea [is] Thy wrath? For Thou dost ride on Thy horses — Thy chariots of salvation?
Oh Yawe, otombokelaki nde bibale? Osopelaki nde miluka kanda na Yo? Osilikelaki nde ebale monene tango ozalaki kotambola likolo ya bampunda, likolo ya bashar na Yo ya lokumu?
9 Utterly naked Thou dost make Thy bow, Sworn are the tribes — saying, (Pause) [With] rivers Thou dost cleave the earth.
Obimisaki tolotolo na Yo na ebombelo na yango, maloba ya bandayi oyo olapaki ezalaki makonga na Yo. Ozindisaki mokili kati na bibale.
10 Seen thee — pained are mountains, An inundation of waters hath passed over, Given forth hath the deep its voice, High its hands it hath lifted up.
Soki bangomba emoni Yo, elengaka; mayi etiolaka makasi, ebale monene etombokaka mpe bambonge na yango emataka kino na likolo.
11 Sun — moon — hath stood — a habitation, At the light thine arrows go on, At the brightness, the glittering of thy spear.
Tango makonga ya mike etambolaka lokola mikalikali mpe makonga ebetaka lokola bakake, moyi mpe sanza etelemaka kuna na likolo.
12 In indignation Thou dost tread earth, In anger Thou dost thresh nations.
Na kanda, otambolaka na mabele; mpe na kanda makasi na Yo, onyataka bikolo.
13 Thou hast gone forth for the salvation of Thy people, For salvation with Thine anointed, Thou hast smitten the head of the house of the wicked, Laying bare the foundation unto the neck. (Pause)
Obimaka mpo na kokangola bato na Yo mpe mpo na kobikisa mopakolami na Yo. Obomaki mokambi ya mokili ya bato mabe, osambwisaki ye kobanda na moto kino na makolo.
14 Thou hast pierced with his staves the head of his leaders, They are tempestuous to scatter me, Their exultation [is] as to consume the poor in secret.
Otobolaki ye moto na nzela ya likonga na ye moko, tango basoda na ye bazalaki koya na elulu lokola mopepe mpo na kopanza biso. Bazalaki kosepela na elikya ete bakoboma biso na nkuku.
15 Thou hast proceeded through the sea with Thy horses — the clay of many waters.
Otambolaka na ebale elongo na bampunda na Yo; boye oningisaka mayi minene.
16 I have heard, and my belly trembleth, At the noise have my lips quivered, Rottenness doth come into my bones, And in my place I do tremble, That I rest for a day of distress, At the coming up of the people, he overcometh it.
Tango nayokaki sango oyo, motema na ngai ekomaki kobeta makasi, bibebu na ngai ekomaki kolenga, mikuwa na ngai ekomaki kopola mpe makolo na ngai ekomaki kolenga. Kasi nakokanga motema na ngai mpo na kozela mokolo ya pasi oyo ekokomela ekolo oyo ebundisaki biso.
17 Though the fig-tree doth not flourish, And there is no produce among vines, Failed hath the work of the olive, And fields have not yielded food, Cut off from the fold hath been the flock, And there is no herd in the stalls.
Nzokande, nzete ya figi ebimisi fololo te, nzete ya vino eboti mbuma te, nzete ya olive eboti mbuma te, bilanga ebimisi bilei te, bameme mpe bantaba ezali te kati na lopango, mpe bangombe ezali te kati na lopango.
18 Yet I, in Jehovah I exult, I do joy in the God of my salvation.
Kasi ngai nakosepela kati na Yawe mpe nakotondisama na esengo mingi kati na Nzambe, Mobikisi na ngai.
19 Jehovah the Lord [is] my strength, And He doth make my feet like hinds, And on my high-places causeth me to tread. To the overseer with my stringed instruments!
Nkolo Yawe azali makasi na ngai: akomisaka makolo na ngai lokola makolo ya mboloko, apesaka ngai makasi ya komata kino na likolo ya bangomba.
