< Habakkuk 1 >

1 Saƙon da annabi Habakkuk ya karɓa.
The burden which Habakkuk the prophet did see.
2 Har yaushe, ya Ubangiji, zan yi kukan neman taimako, amma ka ƙi ji? Ina kuka a gare ka saboda zalunci amma ba ka ce ufam ba.
O LORD, how long shall I cry, and thou wilt not hear? I cry out unto thee of violence, and thou wilt not save.
3 Me ya sa ka bari ina ta kallon rashin gaskiya? Me ya sa kake barin abin da ba daidai ba? Hallaka da tashin hankali suna a gabana; ga rashin jituwa da faɗa ko’ina.
Why dost thou shew me iniquity, and look upon perverseness? for spoiling and violence are before me: and there is strife, and contention riseth up.
4 Saboda haka ba a bin doka, shari’a kuma ba ta aiki. Mugaye sun kewaye masu adalci don a hana gaskiya tă yi aiki.
Therefore the law is slacked, and judgment doth never go forth: for the wicked doth compass about the righteous; therefore judgment goeth forth perverted.
5 “Ka dubi al’ummai, ka gani, ka sha mamaki. Ga shi zan yi wani abu a kwanakinka, wanda ko ma an faɗa maka ba za ka gaskata ba.
Behold ye among the nations, and regard, and wonder marvelously: for I work a work in your days, which ye will not believe though it be told you.
6 Zan tā da Babiloniyawa, waɗannan marasa hankali da kuma marasa tausayi; masu gajeren haƙuri, waɗanda suke ratsa ko’ina a duniya don su ƙwace wuraren zaman da ba nasu ba.
For, lo, I raise up the Chaldeans, that bitter and hasty nation; which march through the breadth of the earth, to possess dwelling places that are not theirs.
7 Suna da bantsoro da firgitarwa; dokoki da ƙa’idodinsu ne kawai suka sani.
They are terrible and dreadful: their judgment and their dignity proceed from themselves.
8 Dawakansu sun fi damisoshi sauri, sun fi kyarketan yamma zafin rai. Mahayansu suna zuwa a guje; mahayansu daga nesa suka fito. Suna firiya kamar ungulu mai sauka da gaggawa don yă ci mushe;
Their horses also are swifter than leopards, and are more fierce than the evening wolves; and their horsemen spread themselves: yea, their horsemen come from far; they fly as an eagle that hasteth to devour.
9 duk sukan zo da nufin tā-da-na-zaune-tsaye. Ana jin tsoronsu tun ma kafin su iso suna tattara bayi kamar yashi.
They come all of them for violence; their faces are set eagerly as the east wind; and they gather captives as the sand.
10 Sukan yi wa sarakuna ba’a su kuma rena masu mulki. Sukan yi wa dukan birane masu mafaka dariya; sukan tara ƙasa su hau, su cinye abokan gābansu da yaƙi.
Yea, he scoffeth at kings, and princes are a derision unto him: he derideth every strong hold; for he heapeth up dust, and taketh it.
11 Sa’an nan su wuce da sauri kamar iska, mutane ne masu laifi, waɗanda ƙarfinsu shi ne allahnsu.”
Then shall he sweep by [as] a wind, and shall pass over, and be guilty: [even] he whose might is his god.
12 Ya Ubangiji, ba tun fil azal kake ba? Ya Allahna, Mai Tsarkina, ba za mu mutu ba. Ya Ubangiji ka sanya su su tabbatar da hukunci; Ya Dutse, ka naɗa su don su yi hukunci.
Art not thou from everlasting, O LORD my God, mine Holy One? we shall not die. O LORD, thou hast ordained him for judgment; and thou, O Rock, hast established him for correction.
13 Idanunka masu tsarki ne da suka fi gaban duban mugunta; ba ka amince da abin da ke ba daidai ba. To, don me ka ƙyale munafukai suna cin karensu ba babbaka? Me ya sa kake shiru sa’ad da mugaye suke haɗiye adalai da suka fi su adalci?
Thou that art of purer eyes than to behold evil, and that canst not look on perverseness, wherefore lookest thou upon them that deal treacherously, and holdest thy peace when the wicked swalloweth up the man that is more righteous than he;
14 Ka mai da maza kamar kifin teku, kamar halittun tekun da ba su da shugaba.
and makest men as the fishes of the sea, as the creeping things, that have no ruler over them?
15 Mugu abokin gāba yakan kama su duka da ƙugiya, yă jawo su waje da abin kamun kifinsa, yă tattara su cikin ragarsa, ta haka yakan yi murna da farin ciki.
He taketh up all of them with the angle, he catcheth them in his net, and gathereth them in his drag: therefore he rejoiceth and is glad.
16 Saboda haka yakan yi hadaya wa abin kamun kifinsa yă kuma ƙona turare wa ragarsa, domin ta wurin abin kamun kifinsa ne yake yin rayuwar jin daɗi yă kuma zaɓi irin abincin da yake so.
Therefore he sacrificeth unto his net, and burneth incense unto his drag; because by them his portion is fat, and his meat plenteous.
17 Zai ci gaba da juye abin kamun kifinsu ke nan, suna hallaka al’ummai ba tausayi?
Shall he therefore empty his net, and not spare to slay the nations continually?
