< Abakouk 1 >
1 Pwofesi ke Habacuc, pwofèt la te wè.
[the] oracle which to see Habakkuk [the] prophet
2 Pandan konbyen tan, O SENYÈ, mwen va kriye sekou e Ou pa tande? Mwen kriye a Ou menm, “Vyolans!” Men Ou pa delivre.
till where? LORD to cry and not to hear: hear to cry out to(wards) you violence and not to save
3 Poukisa Ou fè m wè inikite, e Ou gade sou tout mechanste yo? Wi, se destriksyon ak vyolans ki devan mwen; gwo konfli ak kont k ap leve toupatou.
to/for what? to see: see me evil: wickedness and trouble to look and violence and violence to/for before me and to be strife and strife to lift: raise
4 Akoz sa, yo vin pa okipe yo de lalwa e jistis la pa janm avanse. Paske mechan yo vin antoure moun ladwati yo. Lajistis tòde nèt.
upon so be numb instruction and not to come out: come to/for perpetuity justice for wicked to surround [obj] [the] righteous upon so to come out: come justice to twist
5 “Gade pami nasyon yo! Obsève byen! Se pou nou vin sezi e menm etone! Paske Mwen ap fè nan jou pa w yo, yon bagay ke ou pa t ap kwè, malgre ke ou ta tande l.
to see: see in/on/with nation and to look and to astounded to astounded for work to work in/on/with day your not be faithful for to recount
6 Paske, gade byen, Mwen ap leve Kaldeyen yo, pèp fewòs e san kontwòl sa a, k ap mache sou tout tè a pou sezi kote ki pa pou yo.
for look! I to arise: raise [obj] [the] Chaldea [the] nation [the] bitter and [the] to hasten [the] to go: walk to/for broad land: country/planet to/for to possess: take tabernacle not to/for him
7 Yo plen tout moun ak gwo laperèz, ak lakrent. Jistis ak otorite pa yo sòti sèl nan yo menm.
terrible and to fear he/she/it from him justice his and elevation his to come out: come
8 Chevalye yo pi vit ke leyopa, e pi vijilan ke lou lannwit. Chevalye yo vin galope. Chevalye yo sòti lwen. Yo vole tankou èg k ap plonje desann pou devore.
and to lighten from leopard horse his and be sharp from wolf evening and to leap horseman his and horseman his from distant to come (in): come to fly like/as eagle to hasten to/for to eat
9 Yo tout vini pou fè vyolans. Nan rega pa yo se an avan. Yo ranmase kaptif tankou sab.
all his to/for violence to come (in): come horde face their east [to] and to gather like/as sand captivity
10 Yo giyonnen wa yo e yo moke gouvènè yo. Yo pase tout bastyon yo nan tenten. Yo sanble ranblè tè yo e yo sezi yo.
and he/she/it in/on/with king to mock and to rule laughing to/for him he/she/it to/for all fortification to laugh and to heap dust and to capture her
11 Tankou van yo va vole pase, pou yo ale nèt. Yo vrèman koupab; yo mete fòs yo nan dye pa yo a.”
then to pass spirit: breath and to pass and be guilty this strength his to/for god his
12 Èske se pa nan letènite Ou sòti, O SENYÈ, Bondye mwen an, (Sila) Ki Sen mwen an? Nou p ap mouri. Ou menm, O SENYÈ, Ou te dezinye yo pou jijman an. Ou menm, O Woche a, Ou te etabli yo pou pinisyon.
not you(m. s.) from front: old LORD God my holy my not to die LORD to/for justice: judgement to set: appoint him and rock to/for to rebuke to found him
13 Zye Ou twò pafè pou gade mal, e Ou pa ka menm gade mechanste. Poukisa Ou sipòte (sila) ki trèt yo? Poukisa Ou rete an silans pandan mechan yo ap vale (sila) ki pi jis pase yo?
pureness eye from to see: see bad: evil and to look to(wards) trouble not be able to/for what? to look to act treacherously be quiet in/on/with to swallow up wicked righteous from him
14 Poukisa kite yo fè lòm tankou pwason lanmè, tankou (sila) k ap trennen atè ki pa gen gouvènè sou yo?
and to make man like/as fish [the] sea like/as creeping not to rule in/on/with him
15 Pou Kaldeyen yo, yo rale yo fè yo tout monte ak yon zen. Yo rale pote yo ale ak pèlen, e ranmase yo ansanm nan filè pwason. Se konsa y ap rejwi e fè kè kontan.
all his in/on/with hook to ascend: establish to drag/chew/saw him in/on/with net his and to gather him in/on/with net his upon so to rejoice and to rejoice
16 Tout sa, akoz yo ofri yon sakrifis a filè yo; yo brile lansan nan filè a; paske pa bagay sa yo, lavi a vin bon, e manje yo vin anpil.
upon so to sacrifice to/for net his and to offer: offer to/for net his for in/on/with them rich portion his and food his fat
17 Èske se konsa yap kontinye vide filè yo, e kontinye detwi nasyon yo san mizerikòd?
upon so to empty net his and continually to/for to kill nation not to spare
