ХАБАКУК 1
1 Пророчия дескоперитэ пророкулуй Хабакук.
[I am] Habakkuk, a prophet. This is the [message that Yahweh] gave to me in a vision.
2 Пынэ кынд вой стрига кэтре Тине, Доамне, фэрэ с-аскулць? Пынэ кынд мэ вой тынгуи Цие, фэрэ сэ дай ажутор?
[I said, ] “Yahweh, how long must I continue to call [to you] for help before you respond? I cry out to you [for help], saying that [people are acting] violently [everywhere], but you do not rescue us!
3 Пентру че мэ лашь сэ вэд нелеӂюиря ши Те уйць ла недрептате? Асуприря ши силничия се фак суб окий мей, се наск чертурь ши се стырнеште гылчавэ.
(Must I/I do not want to) continue seeing people doing what is unjust [RHQ]. Why do you not punish people who are doing what is wrong [RHQ]? I see people destroying things and [acting] violently. There is fighting and quarreling [everywhere].
4 Де ачея леӂя есте фэрэ путере ши дрептатя ну се веде, кэч чел рэу бируе пе чел неприхэнит, де ачея се фак жудекэць недрепте.
No one obeys laws [PRS], and judges [PRS] never do what is fair/just. Wicked people always defeat righteous people [in the courts], with the result that matters are never decided fairly/justly.”
5 „Арункаци-вэ окий принтре нямурь ши привиць, уймици-вэ ши ынгрозици-вэ! Кэч ын зилеле воастре вой фаче о лукраре пе каре н-аць креде-о, дакэ в-ар повести-о чинева!
[Yahweh replied to me, ] “[I know that what you say is true, but] look around at [what is happening in] the other nations; [if you look, ] you will be amazed, because I am doing something during this time that you would not believe [would happen], even if someone told you about it.
6 Ятэ, вой ридика пе халдеень – попор турбат ши юте, каре стрэбате ынтиндерь марь де цэрь, ка сэ пунэ мына пе локуинце каре ну сунт але луй.
The soldiers of Babylonia are fierce/cruel and swift. And now I am causing them [to become very powerful]; they will march across the world and conquer [many] other countries.
7 Ел есте грозав ши ынфрикошат; нумай дин ел ынсушь ый ес дрептул ши мэриря луй.
They are people whom [others] fear very much [DOU], and they do whatever they want to, paying no attention to the laws of other countries.
8 Каий луй сунт май юць декыт леопарзий, май спринтень декыт лупий де сярэ, ши кэлэреций луй ынаинтязэ ын галоп де департе, збоарэ ка вултурул каре се репеде асупра прэзий.
The horses [that pull their chariots] go faster than leopards, and they are fiercer than wolves are in the evening. The horses on which the soldiers ride gallop swiftly; the soldiers riding them come from distant places. They are like [SIM] eagles that swoop down to [snatch and] kill small animals.
9 Тот попорул ачеста вине нумай ка сэ жефуяскэ; привириле луй лакоме каутэ ынаинте ши стрынӂе приншь де рэзбой ка нисипул.
As they ride along, [they are] determined to act violently. They advance like [SIM] a wind from the desert, gathering prisoners that are as [numerous as grains of] sand.
10 Ышь бате жок де ымпэраць, ши воевозий сунт о нимика пентру ел, рыде де тоате ынтэритуриле, кэч ынгрэмэдеште пэмынт ши ле я.
They make fun of kings and princes [of other countries], and they ridicule all the cities that have high walls around them. They pile dirt [outside those walls] [in order to climb up] and capture those cities.
11 Апой априндеря и се ындоеште, ынтрече мэсура ши се фаче виноват, кэч путеря луй о я ка думнезеу ал луй!”
They rush past like the wind, and then they go [to attack other cities]. But they are very guilty, because [they think that] their own power is their god.”
12 Доамне, ну ешть Ту дин вешничие Думнезеул меу, Сфынтул меу? Ну вом мури! Доамне, Ту ай ридикат пе попорул ачеста ка сэ-Ць ымплинешть жудекэциле Тале; Ту, Стынка мя, л-ай ридикат ка сэ дай прин ел педепселе Тале!
[Then I said, ] “Yahweh, you have certainly [RHQ] always/forever been God. You are my Holy One; you will not die. So [why] have you appointed those men [from Babylonia] to judge and get rid of [us]? You are like [MET] a huge rock [under which we are protected/safe], so why have you sent them to punish us?
13 Окий Тэй сунт аша де кураць кэ ну пот сэ вадэ рэул ши ну поць сэ привешть нелеӂюиря! Кум ай путя приви Ту пе чей мишей ши сэ тачь кынд чел рэу мэнынкэ пе чел май неприхэнит декыт ел?
You [SYN] are pure, and you cannot endure looking at what is evil, [so why] are you ignoring men who are treacherous? Why do you do nothing [to punish] those wicked men [from Babylonia] who destroy people who are more righteous than they [are]?
14 Вей фаче Ту омулуй ка пештилор мэрий, ка тырытоарей, каре н-аре стэпын?
[Do you consider that] we are like fish in the sea, or like other creatures in the sea, that have no ruler?
15 Ел ый скоате пе тоць ку ундица, ый траӂе ын мряжа са, ый стрынӂе ын нэводул сэу. Де ачея се букурэ ши се веселеште.
[The soldiers of Babylonia think that we are fish] [RHQ] for them to pull out of the sea with hooks or to catch in their nets, while they rejoice and celebrate.
16 Де ачея адуче жертфе мрежей сале, адуче тэмые нэводулуй сэу, кэч лор ле даторязэ партя луй чя грасэ ши букателе луй густоасе!
If they catch us, they will [worship] their weapons [MET] with which they captured us, and offer sacrifices to them and burn incense in front of them! [They will say] ‘Those weapons have enabled us to become rich and be able to eat expensive food.’
17 Пентру ачаста ышь ва голи ел ынтруна мряжа ши ва ынжунгия фэрэ милэ пе нямурь?
[Will you allow] them to continue [to conquer people] [MET] forever? [Will you allow] them to destroy people of other nations without their being merciful [to anyone]?”
