Habacuc 3
1 Una oración del profeta Habacuc, con música victoriosa.
A prayer of Habakkuk the prophet, put to Shigionoth.
2 Yahvé, he oído hablar de tu fama. Me asombro de tus actos, Yahvé. Renueva tu trabajo en la medio de los años. En medio de los años hazlo saber. En la ira, te acuerdas de la misericordia.
O Lord, word of you has come to my ears; I have seen your work, O Lord; when the years come near make it clear; in wrath keep mercy in mind.
3 Dios vino de Temán, el Santo del Monte Parán. (Selah) Su gloria cubrió los cielos, y su alabanza llenó la tierra.
God came from Teman, and the Holy One from Mount Paran. (Selah) The heavens were covered with his glory, and the earth was full of his praise.
4 Su esplendor es como la salida del sol. Los rayos brillan desde su mano, donde se esconde su poder.
He was shining like the light; he had rays coming out from his hand: there his power was kept secret.
5 La peste iba delante de él, y la pestilencia seguía sus pies.
Before him went disease, and flames went out at his feet.
6 Se puso de pie y sacudió la tierra. Miró, e hizo temblar a las naciones. Las antiguas montañas se desmoronaron. Las colinas milenarias se derrumbaron. Sus caminos son eternos.
From his high place he sent shaking on the earth; he saw and nations were suddenly moved: and the eternal mountains were broken, the unchanging hills were bent down; his ways are eternal.
7 Vi las tiendas de Cusán afligidas. Las viviendas de la tierra de Madián temblaban.
The curtains of Cushan were troubled, and the tents of Midian were shaking.
8 ¿Se disgustó Yahvé con los ríos? ¿Fue su ira contra los ríos, o tu ira contra el mar, que montasteis en vuestros caballos, en sus carros de salvación?
Was your wrath burning against the rivers? were you angry with the sea, that you went on your horses, on your war-carriages of salvation?
9 Descubriste tu arco. Llamaste a tus flechas juradas. (Selah) Divides la tierra con ríos.
Your bow was quite uncovered. (Selah) By you the earth was cut through with rivers.
10 Las montañas te vieron y tuvieron miedo. La tormenta de aguas pasó de largo. Las profundidades rugieron y levantaron sus manos en lo alto.
The mountains saw you and were moved with fear; the clouds were streaming with water: the voice of the deep was sounding; the sun did not come up, and the moon kept still in her place.
11 El sol y la luna se detuvieron en el cielo a la luz de sus flechas cuando pasaron, ante el brillo de tu reluciente lanza.
At the light of your arrows they went away, at the shining of your polished spear.
12 Marchaste por la tierra con ira. Trillaste a las naciones con ira.
You went stepping through the land in wrath, crushing the nations in your passion.
13 Saliste por la salvación de tu pueblo, para la salvación de tu ungido. Aplastaste la cabeza de la tierra de la maldad. Los desnudaste de pies a cabeza. (Selah)
You went out for the salvation of your people, for the salvation of the one on whom your holy oil was put; wounding the head of the family of the evil-doer, uncovering the base even to the neck. (Selah)
14 Atravesaste las cabezas de sus guerreros con sus propias lanzas. Vinieron como un torbellino a dispersarme, regodeándose como si fuera a devorar a los desdichados en secreto.
You have put your spears through his head, his horsemen were sent in flight like dry stems; they had joy in driving away the poor, in making a meal of them secretly.
15 Has pisoteado el mar con tus caballos, agitando las poderosas aguas.
The feet of your horses were on the sea, on the mass of great waters.
16 Lo oí, y mi cuerpo se estremeció. Mis labios temblaron al oír la voz. La podredumbre entra en mis huesos, y tiemblo en mi lugar porque debo esperar tranquilamente el día de la angustia, por la llegada de la gente que nos invade.
Hearing it, my inner parts were moved, and my lips were shaking at the sound; my bones became feeble, and my steps were uncertain under me: I gave sounds of grief in the day of trouble, when his forces came up against the people in bands.
17 Porque aunque la higuera no florezca ni haya frutos en las viñas, el trabajo de la aceituna falle, y los campos no den comida, los rebaños sean quitados del redil, y no haya manadas en los establos,
For though the fig-tree has no flowers, and there is no fruit on the vine, and work on the olive comes to nothing, and the fields give no food; and the flock is cut off from its resting-place, and there is no herd in the cattle-house:
18 aún me regocijaré en Yahvé. Estaré alegre en el Dios de mi salvación.
Still, I will be glad in the Lord, my joy will be in the God of my salvation.
19 Yahvé, el Señor, es mi fuerza. Hace mis pies como pies de ciervo, y me permite ir a lugares altos. Para el director de música, en mis instrumentos de cuerda.
The Lord God is my strength, and he makes my feet like roes' feet, guiding me on my high places. For the chief music-maker on corded instruments.
