< Habakuka 3 >

1 O KA pule a Habakuka, ke kaula, me ka mele lanakila.
A prayer of Habakkuk the prophet upon Shigionoth.
2 E Iehova, ua lohe au i ka mea au i olelo ai, a weliweli iho la au: E Iehova, e hoala hou mai oe i kau hana iwaena o na makahiki, Iwaena o na makahiki e hoike mai; Iloko o ka huhu, e hoomanao mai oe i ke aloha.
O LORD, I have heard thy speech, [and] was afraid: O LORD, revive thy work in the midst of the years, in the midst of the years make known; in wrath remember mercy.
3 O ke Akua ka i hele mai, mai Temana mai, A o ka Mea Hemolele mai ka mauna o Parana mai. (Sila) Uhi mai kona nani i ka lani, A ua piha ka honua i kona hoolea.
God came from Teman, and the Holy One from mount Paran. (Selah) His glory covered the heavens, and the earth was full of his praise.
4 O kona olinolino ua like me ka la, Mai kona lima mai na kukuna malamalama, A malaila ka huna ana o kona mana.
And [his] brightness was as the light; he had horns [coming] out of his hand: and there [was] the hiding of his power.
5 Imua ona i hele aku ai ke ahulau, A o ka make wela i hele aku ma kona mau wawae.
Before him went the pestilence, and burning coals went forth at his feet.
6 Ku ae la ia, a ana aku la i ka honua, Nana ae la ia, a hoohaalulu i na lahuikanaka; Ua hooheleleiia na mauna kahiko, A ua hoohaahaaia na puu mau loa; Oia kona mau aoao i ka wa kahiko.
He stood, and measured the earth: he beheld, and drove asunder the nations; and the everlasting mountains were scattered, the perpetual hills did bow: his ways [are] everlasting.
7 Ike aku la au i na halelewa o Kusana i ka popilikia: A haalulu na paku-halelewa o ka aina o Midiana.
I saw the tents of Cushan in affliction: [and] the curtains of the land of Midian did tremble.
8 Ua huhu anei o Iehova i na muliwai? A ua ku e kou inaina i na kahawai? Ua maka e kou huhu i ke kai? I ka manawa au i holo ai maluna o kou mau lio, kou mau halekaa o ke ola?
Was the LORD displeased against the rivers? [was] thine anger against the rivers? [was] thy wrath against the sea, that thou didst ride upon thine horses [and] thy chariots of salvation?
9 Ua wehe loa ia kau kakaka, o na ihe ehiku, oia ka olelo. (Sila) Ua hoonahae oe i ka honua me na muliwai.
Thy bow was made quite naked, [according] to the oaths of the tribes, [even thy] word. (Selah) Thou didst cleave the earth with rivers.
10 Ike aku na mauna ia oe, haalulu iho la; A holo aku la ka wai nui, A hoopuka mai ka hohonu i kona leo, Hookiekie ae la ia i kona mau lima iluna.
The mountains saw thee, [and] they trembled: the overflowing of the water passed by: the deep uttered his voice, [and] lifted up his hands on high.
11 O ka la, o ka mahina, ku malie ma ko laua wahi: Ma ka malamalama o kou mau pua, hele aku la lakou, A ma ka wakawaka o kau ihe huali.
The sun [and] moon stood still in their habitation: at the light of thine arrows they went, [and] at the shining of thy glittering spear.
12 Me ka inaina i hele aku oe mawaena o ka aina, Me ka huhu i hahi iho oe i na lahuikanaka,
Thou didst march through the land in indignation, thou didst thresh the heathen in anger.
13 Ua hele aku oe e hoola i kou poe kanaka, E hoopakele i kou mea i poniia; Ua ulupa oe i ke poo o ka mea no ka ohana hewa, Ua hoike ae i ka hohonu, A hiki i ka a-i. (Sila)
Thou wentest forth for the salvation of thy people, [even] for salvation with thine anointed; thou woundedst the head out of the house of the wicked, by discovering the foundation unto the neck. (Selah)
14 Ua o hou aku oe i ke poo o kona poe alii, me kana mau ihe, Holo mai lakou, me he ino la, e hoopuehu ia'u; O ko lakou olioli, ua like me ka olioli o ka luku ana i ka mea ilihune ma kahi malu.
Thou didst strike through with his staves the head of his villages: they came out as a whirlwind to scatter me: their rejoicing [was] as to devour the poor secretly.
15 Ua hele oe iwaena o ke kai me kou poe lio, Ma ke aleale o na wai nui.
Thou didst walk through the sea with thine horses, [through] the heap of great waters.
16 Lohe iho la au, a haalulu ko'u opu; Haalulu kuu lehelehe i ka leo; Komo mai ka popopo iloko o kou mau iwi, A haalulu au ma kuu wahi malalo; He oiaio, e hoomaha au i ka la o ka popilikia, A pii ku e mai na kanaka, e hoopilikia mai.
When I heard, my belly trembled; my lips quivered at the voice: rottenness entered into my bones, and I trembled in myself, that I might rest in the day of trouble: when he cometh up unto the people, he will invade them with his troops.
17 I ka manawa e pua ole mai ai ka laau fiku, Aole hoi he hua ma na kumu waina; A e mae ka hua o ka laau oliva, Aole hoi e hua mai na kihapai i ka ai; A e okiia'ku ka poe hipa mai ka pahipa aku, Aole hoi he bipi maloko o na wahi hanai bipi;
Although 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 meat; the flock shall be cut off from the fold, and [there shall be] no herd in the stalls:
18 E olioli no au iloko o Iehova, E hauoli no au iloko o ke Akua o kuu ola.
Yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will joy in the God of my salvation.
19 O Iehova ka Haku, oia ko'u ikaika, A e hoohalike mai ia i ko'u wawae, me na wawae o na dia, A e hoohele no ia ia'u maluna o kuu mau wahi kiekie. Na ka luna mele ma na mea kani.
The LORD God [is] my strength, and he will make my feet like hinds’ [feet], and he will make me to walk upon mine high places. To the chief singer on my stringed instruments.
