Habakkuk 3
1 Ti kararag ni Habakkuk a profeta: iti si-gionoth.
Yahweh, I have heard about you; I revere you because of [all the amazing] things that you have done. In our time, do again [some of] those things that you did long ago! Even when you are angry [with us], be merciful [to us]!
2 O Yahweh, nangngegko ti padamagmo ket mabutengak! O Yahweh, aramidem koma manen dagiti aramidmo kadagitoy a tiempo; kadagitoy a tiempo, ipakaammom koma daytoy; lagipem a maasi iti pungtotmo!
3 Naggapu ti Dios iti Teman, ken ti Nasantoan manipud iti Bantay Paran! (Sela) Inabbongan ti dayagna dagiti langit, ket napno ti daga iti dayawna.
[In the vision, I saw] God, the Holy One, coming from the Teman [district in Edom]; [and I also saw] him coming from the Paran Hills [in the Sinai area]. His glory filled the sky, and the earth was full of [people who were] praising him.
4 Dagiti rayus ti imana ket agranraniag a kas iti lawag, ket sadiay ti pagtaltalinaedan ti pannakabalinna.
His glory was like [SIM] a sunrise; rays flashed from his hands where he hides his power.
5 Napan ti peste iti sangoananna, ken didigra kalpasan dagiti sakana.
He sent plagues in front of him, and [other] plagues came behind him.
6 Timmakder isuna ket rinukodna ti daga; kimmita isuna ket ginungonna dagiti nasion! Uray dagiti agnanayon a bantay ket nargaay, ken nagkurno dagiti saan nga agpatingga a turturod! Saan nga agpatingga ti dalanna!
When he stopped, the earth shook. When he looked at the nations, [all the people] trembled. The hills and mountains that have existed for a very long time [HYP] collapsed and crumbled. Yahweh is the one who exists eternally/forever!
7 Nakitak dagiti tolda ti Cusan iti panagsagaba, ket agkinkintayeg ti lupot dagiti tolda iti daga ti Midian.
[In the vision] I saw the [people who live in] tents in the Cushan [region] being afflicted, and the people in the Midian [region] trembling.
8 Kaunget kadi ni Yahweh dagiti karayan? Maibusor kadi ti pungtotmo kadagiti karayan, wenno maibusor kadi ti nakaro a pungtotmo iti baybay idi nagsakayka kadagiti kabaliom, ti karuahem a pannakaisalakan?
Yahweh, was it because you were angry with the rivers and streams that you were angry with them? Did the seas cause you to be furious, with the result that you rode through them with horses that were pulling chariots that enabled you to defeat them?
9 Inruarmo ti baim nga awan ti abbongna; kinabilam kadagiti pana ti baim! (Sela) Ginuduam ti daga babaen kadagiti karayan.
[It was as though] you uncovered your bow, took arrows from your quiver, [and prepared to shoot them]. [Then with lightning] you split open the earth, and streams burst forth.
10 Nakitadaka dagiti bantay ket nagtiritirda gapu iti ut-ot! Naglabas kadakuada dagiti bayakabak ti danum; nagpukkaw ti nauneg a baybay! Impangatona dagiti dalluyonna!
[It is as though] the mountains saw you [doing that], and they trembled. Floods rushed by; [it was as though] the deep ocean roared and caused its waves to rise up high.
11 Nagtalinaed ti init ken bulan kadagiti narimbaw a lugarda, ket pimmanaw gapu iti lawag dagiti panam ken ti sumilsileng a lawag ti gayangmo!
The sun and moon stopped moving in the sky while your [lightning] flashed [past like] a swift arrow, and your glittering spear flashed.
12 Nagpagnapagnaka iti entero a daga iti luksawmo. Rinidismo dagiti nasion gapu iti pungtotmo.
Being very angry [DOU], you walked across the earth and trampled the [armies of many] nations.
13 Rimmuarka para iti pannakaisalakan dagiti tattaom, para iti pannakaisalakan ti pinulotam! Binurakburakmo ti ulo ti balay ti nadangkes tapno maiparang ti puon ti tengnged! (Sela)
But you [also] went to rescue us, your people, and to save the [king] (Or, [people]) whom you had chosen [MTY]. You struck down the leader [MTY] of those wicked people and stripped off his clothes, from his head to his feet.
14 Dinuyokmo ti ulo dagiti mannakigubatna babaen iti bukodna a pana agsipud ta immayda a kasla bagio a mangiwarawara kadakami, ti panagpasindayawda ket maiyarig iti maysa a mangal-alun-on iti nakurapay iti lugar a paglemmengan.
With his own spear you destroyed the leader of those soldiers who rushed like [SIM] a whirlwind to [attack and] scatter us, thinking that they could conquer us [Israelis] easily.
15 Nagdaliasatka iti baybay agraman dagiti kabaliom, ket ginabsuonmo dagiti napegges a dandanum.
You walked through the sea with your horses [to destroy our enemies], and caused the waves to surge.
16 Nangngegko, ket nagtigerger ti kaunggak! Nagpigerger dagiti bibigko iti uni! Um-umay ti panagrupsa kadagiti tulangko, ken agtigtigergerak bayat iti naulimek a panagur-urayko iti aldaw ti tuok a dumteng kadagiti tattao a nangraut kadakami.
When I saw that vision, my heart pounded and my lips quivered [because I became afraid]. My legs became weak and I shook, [because I was terrified]. But I will wait quietly for the people [of Babylonia], those who invaded our country, to experience disasters!
17 Uray no saan nga agrusing ti kayo nga igos ken saan nga agbunga dagiti ubas; uray no agkurangto ti bunga ti kayo nga olibo, ken awan ti taraon nga ipaay dagiti taltalon; uray no maisina ti arban iti kulongan, ken awan ti baka kadagiti pagtaraknan—
[Therefore, ] even if there are no blossoms on the fig trees, and there are no grapes on the grapevines, and even if there are no olives growing on the olive trees, and there are no crops in the fields, and even if the flocks [of sheep and goats] die in the fields, and there are no cattle in the stalls/barns,
18 Agrag-oak latta kenni Yahweh! Agragsakakto gapu iti Dios ti pannakaisalakanko!
I will rejoice because [I know] Yahweh. I will be joyful because Yahweh my God is the one who saves me!
19 Ti Apo a ni Yahweh ti pigsak, ket aramidenna ti sakak a kas saka ti ugsa ket iturongnak kadagiti nangangato a lugarko! — Para iti direktor ti musika, kadagiti adda kuerdasna nga instrumentok.
Yahweh the Lord is the one who causes me to be strong; he enables me to climb [(safely/without falling)] in the [rocky] mountains, like [SIM] a deer does. (This message is for the choir director: [When this prayer is sung, it is to be accompanied by people playing] stringed instruments.)
