< Xabaquuq 1 >
1 Kanu waa waxa culus ee uu Nebi Xabaquuq arkay.
The message seen by the prophet Habakkuk.
2 Rabbiyow, ilaa goormaan kuu qayshadaa, oo adna aadan i maqlayn? Dulmi baan kaaga qayshadaa, oo namana aad badbaadisid.
How long, Lord, have I cried out and without you hearing me! I cry to you, ‘Violence!’ but you do not help.
3 Bal maxaad xumaan ii tustaa oo aad qallooc iigu jeedisaa? Waayo, waxaa hortayda yaal halligaad iyo dulmi, oo waxaa kor u kaca dirir iyo dagaal.
Why do you make me look upon wickedness and behold trouble? Destruction and violence are before my eyes, and fighting and quarrelling.
4 Sidaas daraaddeed sharcigii waa dabcay oo caddaaladduna hore uma socoto, waayo, kii sharrow ah ayaa hareereeya kii xaq ah, oo sidaas daraaddeed garsooridda waa la qalloociyaa.
Therefore the law is weak, and justice is never rendered; for the wicked surround the righteous, so that justice is perverted.
5 Bal eega quruumaha dhexdooda, ka fiirsada oo aad u yaaba, waayo, maalmihiinnii waxaan samaynayaa shuqul aydaan rumaysan doonin in kastoo laydiin sheego.
Look at the nations, look well, be shocked and amazed. For I am about to do a work in your days; you will not believe it when it is told.
6 Waayo, bal eega, waxaan soo kicinayaa reer Kaldayiin oo ah quruuntaas qadhaadh oo degdegga badan oo dhulka ballaadhkiisa mara inay hantiyaan meelo la dego oo ayan iyagu lahayn.
For I am about to raise up the Chaldeans, a nation grim and quick of action who sweep over the whole breadth of the earth to seize dwellings not their own.
7 Iyagu waa kuwa laga cabsado oo aad looga baqo; xukunkooda iyo sharaftoodu iyagay ka soo baxaan.
They bring fear and terror. They write their own rules.
8 Fardahoodu way ka sii dheereeyaan shabeelka, oo way ka sii cabsi badan yihiin yeyda fiidka, oo fardooleydooduna way iskala bixiyaan, haah, oo fardooleydooduna meel fog bay ka yimaadaan, oo waxay u soo duulaan sida gorgor u soo degdegaya inuu wax dhufsado oo cuno.
Their horses are swifter than leopards, quicker than wolves hunting at dusk. From afar they come swooping down, like an eagle attacking its prey.
9 Dhammaantood waxay u yimaadaan inay wax xoogaan, oo damaca wejigooduna waa sida dabaysha bari, oo waxay urursadaan maxaabiis sida cammuudda u badan.
They all come to do violence, a horde like a desert wind, they gather up captives like sand.
10 Cadowgu boqorro wuu quudhsadaa, oo amiirrona wuu fududaystaa, oo qalcad kastana wuu ku qoslaa, waayo, intuu ciid tuulaa ayuu iska qabsadaa.
At kings they scoff, and princes are sport to them. They laugh at every fortress, and heap up earth to take it.
11 Markaas sida dabayl buu u dhaafi doonaa, oo wuu sii gudbi doonaa, oo dembi buu lahaan doonaa kan xooggiisu ilaah u yahay.
Then they sweep on like the wind, Their strength is their god.
12 Rabbiyow, Ilaahaygiiyow, kayga Quduuska ahow, sow adigu weligaaba ma aad jiri jirin? Annagu dhiman mayno. Rabbiyow, isaga waxaad u diyaarisay xukun, oo waxaad u xoogaysay edbin, kaaga Dhagaxa weyn ahow.
Are you not eternal, Lord, my holy one, who does not die? Lord you have appointed them to execute judgment, my rock, you have established them to punish.
13 Waxaad tahay mid indhihiisu ka sii daahirsan yihiin inay wax shar ah eegaan, oo qalloocna ma fiirin kartid, haddaba bal maxaad u fiirisaa kuwa khiyaanada sameeya? Oo maxaad u aamusan tahay marka sharrowgu liqo ninka isaga ka sii xaq yahay?
Your eyes are too pure to look at evil, you cannot condone iniquity. So why do you regard the treacherous in silence, while the wicked swallows the upright?
14 Oo maxaad dadka uga dhigtaa sida kalluunka badda, iyo sida waxa gurguurta oo aan lahayn mid iyaga u taliya?
You have made people like the fish of the sea, like reptiles that have no ruler.
15 Isagu dhammaantood ayuu jillaab ku soo qaataa, oo shabaggiisuu ku soo qabsadaa, oo intuu shabaggiisa ku soo wada urursado ayuu soo jiitaa, haddaba sidaas daraaddeed wuu reyreeyaa oo farxaa.
The wicked sweep them all into their nets, and gather them into their drag-nets, and rejoice and celebrate.
16 Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed allabari buu u bixiyaa shabaggiisa, oo fooxna wuu u shidaa shabagguu jiita, maxaa yeelay, iyaga ayaa qaybtiisii ku barwaaqowday, oo quudkiisiina aad iyo aad batay.
Therefore they sacrifice to their net, and burn offerings to their drag-net; for by their nets are their portions generous, and their food is rich.
17 Haddaba miyuu shabaggiisa madhin doonaa, oo miyuu quruumaha had iyo goorba layn doonaa, isagoo aan u tudhin?
Will they empty their nets continually, slaughter nations unpityingly?
