< Habakuku 3 >
1 Rĩrĩ nĩ ihooya rĩa mũnabii Habakuku, rĩa kũinwo ta rwĩmbo.
A prayer of Habakkuk the prophet. Upon Shigionoth.
2 Atĩrĩrĩ Jehova, nĩnjiguĩte ũhoro wa ngumo yaku, nganyiitwo nĩ guoya nĩ ũndũ wa ciĩko ciaku. Rurumũkia ciĩko ciaku matukũ-inĩ maya maitũ, ũtũme imenyeke matukũ-inĩ maitũ; o na hĩndĩ ĩrĩa ũrĩ mũrakaru, iguanagĩra tha.
O LORD, I have heard the report of Thee, and am afraid; O LORD, revive Thy work in the midst of the years, in the midst of the years make it known; in wrath remember compassion.
3 Ngai ookire oimĩte Temani, ũcio Mũtheru agĩũka oimĩte Kĩrĩma kĩa Parani. Riiri wake ũkĩhumbĩra igũrũ, naguo ũgooci wake ũkĩiyũra thĩ.
God cometh from Teman, and the Holy One from mount Paran. (Selah) His glory covereth the heavens, and the earth is full of His praise.
4 Ũkengi wake wahaanaga ta riũa rĩkĩratha; mĩrũri yahenũkaga kuuma guoko-inĩ gwake, naho hau nĩho hinya wake wahithĩtwo.
And a brightness appeareth as the light; rays hath He at His side; and there is the hiding of His power.
5 Mũthiro nĩguo wamũtongoragia; mũrimũ wa mũthiro ũkamuuma thuutha.
Before him goeth the pestilence, and fiery bolts go forth at His feet.
6 Aarũgamire, agĩthingithia thĩ; agĩcũthĩrĩria agĩtũma ndũrĩrĩ ciinaine. Irĩma cia tene ikĩmumuthũka, natuo tũrĩma twa tene tũkĩmomoka. Mĩthiĩre yake-rĩ, nĩ ya tene na tene.
He standeth, and shaketh the earth, He beholdeth, and maketh the nations to tremble; and the everlasting mountains are dashed in pieces, the ancient hills do bow; His goings are as of old.
7 Nĩndonire andũ arĩa matũũraga hema cia Kushani marĩ na mĩnyamaro, nao arĩa matũũraga Midiani maiyũrĩtwo nĩ ruo rũnene.
I see the tents of Cushan in affliction; the curtains of the land of Midian do tremble.
8 Wee Jehova-rĩ, nĩ njũũĩ warakarĩire? Mangʼũrĩ maku-rĩ, nĩ tũrũũĩ mokĩrĩire? Wee-rĩ, wokĩrĩire iria na mangʼũrĩ maku rĩrĩa wahaicĩte mbarathi ciaku na ngaari ciaku cia ũhootani cia ita?
Is it, O LORD, that against the rivers, is it that Thine anger is kindled against the rivers, or Thy wrath against the sea? that Thou dost ride upon Thy horses, upon Thy chariots of victory?
9 Nĩwarutire ũta waku, ũkĩwoya na igũrũ, na ũgĩĩtia mĩguĩ mĩingĩ. Nayo thĩ ũkĩmĩgayania na njũũĩ;
Thy bow is made quite bare; sworn are the rods of the word. (Selah) Thou dost cleave the earth with rivers.
10 irĩma ciakuonire ikĩĩnyogonda. Kĩguũ kĩa maaĩ nakĩo gĩgĩtherera; maaĩ ma kũrĩa kũriku makĩhũũyũka, na makĩambararia makũmbĩ mamo na igũrũ taarĩ moko.
The mountains have seen Thee, and they tremble; the tempest of waters floweth over; the deep uttereth its voice, and lifteth up its hands on high.
11 Riũa na mweri nĩciarũgamire o ro ũguo kũu igũrũ, ciona ũtheri wa mĩguĩ yaku ĩkĩrathũka, na ciona kũhenia gwa itimũ rĩaku rĩkĩmenũka.
The sun and moon stand still in their habitation; at the light of Thine arrows as they go, at the shining of Thy glittering spear.
12 Watuĩkanĩirie thĩ na mangʼũrĩ, na ũkĩhũũra ndũrĩrĩ ũrĩ na marakara.
Thou marchest through the earth in indignation, Thou threshest the nations in anger.
13 Wokire kũhonokia andũ aku, na ũhonokie ũrĩa waku mũitĩrĩrie maguta. Wahehenjire kĩongo kĩa nyũmba ya waganu, ũkĩmĩtharia nginya itina-inĩ ciayo.
Thou art come forth for the deliverance of Thy people, for the deliverance of Thine anointed; Thou woundest the head out of the house of the wicked, uncovering the foundation even unto the neck. (Selah)
14 Wamũtheecire mũtwe na itimũ rĩake mwene, rĩrĩa njamba ciake cia ita ciatũtharĩkĩire itũharaganie; cigakenagĩrĩra ta igũtambuura athĩĩni arĩa mehithĩte.
Thou hast stricken through with his own rods the head of his rulers, that come as a whirlwind to scatter me; whose rejoicing is as to devour the poor secretly.
15 Wee wakinyire iria igũrũ na mbarathi ciaku, ũgĩthuka maaĩ macio maingĩ, magĩtuĩka makũmbĩ manene.
Thou hast trodden the sea with Thy horses, the foaming of mighty waters.
16 Ndaiguire ũhoro ũcio, ngoro yakwa ĩgĩtumatuuma, nacio iromo ciakwa ikĩinaina nĩ mũgambo ũcio; mahĩndĩ makwa makĩonja, namo magũrũ makwa makĩinaina. No niĩ nĩngweterera ngirĩrĩirie, nginya mũthenya ũrĩa wa kũnyariirĩka ũgaakinya, ũkore rũrĩrĩ rũrĩa rũtũtharĩkagĩra.
When I heard, mine inward parts trembled, my lips quivered at the voice; rottenness entereth into my bones, and I tremble where I stand; that I should wait for the day of trouble, when he cometh up against the people that he invadeth.
17 Atĩrĩrĩ, o na mũkũyũ ũngĩaga kũruta kĩro, nayo mĩthabibũ yaage thabibũ, o naguo mũtamaiyũ wage maciaro, nayo mĩgũnda yaage irio; o na kũngĩaga ngʼondu gĩcegũ na kwage ngʼombe ciugũ-inĩ-rĩ,
For though the fig-tree shall not blossom, neither shall fruit be in the vines; the labour of the olive shall fail, and the fields shall yield no food; the flock shall be cut off from the fold, and there shall be no herd in the stalls;
18 niĩ no ndĩrĩkenagĩra Jehova, njanjamũkage nĩ ũndũ wa Ngai Mũhonokia wakwa.
Yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will exult in the God of my salvation.
19 Mwathani Jehova nĩwe hinya wakwa, atũmaga magũrũ makwa magĩe ihenya ta magũrũ ma thwariga, nake aahotithagia kũhaica kũrĩa gũtũũgĩru. Kũrĩ mũtongoria wa nyĩmbo. Rwĩmbo rũrũ nĩ rwa kũinwo na inanda cia mũgeeto.
God, the Lord, is my strength, and He maketh my feet like hinds' feet, and He maketh me to walk upon my high places. For the Leader. With my string-music.
