Habakuki 2
1 Nitasimama kwenye nguzo yangu ya ulinzi na kujiweka mwenyewe juu ya mnara wa mlinzi, na nitatazama kwa makini kuona yeye atasema nini kwangu na namna gani nitageuka kutoka kwenye lawama yangu.
At post my I will stand and I will take my stand on [the] fortification so I may watch to see what? will he speak by me and what? will I bring back on complaint my.
2 Yahwe alinijibu na alisema, “Rekodi maono haya, na uandike dhahiri juu ya kibao ili kwamba anayesoma anaweza kukimbia.
And he answered me Yahweh and he said write down [the] vision and make [it] clear on the tablets so that he may run [one who] reads it.
3 Sababu maono haya bado ni kwa wakati ujao na hatimaye atazungumza bila kuanguka. Ingawa inachelewa, isubiri. Sababu kwa hakika itatakuja na haitachelewa.
For still [the] vision [is] for the appointed time and it will pant to the end and not it will lie if it will delay wait for it for surely it will come not it will delay.
4 Tazama! yule ambae hamu yake siyo sawa ndani yake anapumua kwa nguvu. Lakini mwenye haki ataishi kwa imani.
There! it is swollen not it is upright self his in him and [the] righteous by faithfulness his he will live.
5 Sababu mvinyo ni msaliti wa kijana mwenye kiburi ili kwamba asistahimili, lakini hukuza tamaa yake kama kaburi na, kama kifo, haitaweza kuridhishwa. Yeye anajikusanyia kila taifa na anakusanya kwaajili yake watu wote. (Sheol h7585)
And also for wine [is] treacherous a man arrogant and [who] not he stays at home who he has made large like Sheol throat his and he [is] like death and not he is satisfied and he has gathered to himself all the nations and he has assembled to himself all the peoples. (Sheol h7585)
6 Haya yote hayatatengeneza usemi kumdhihaki na wimbo wa dhihaka unaomhusu, 'ole wake yule aongezaye visivyo vya kwake! kwa muda gani utaongeza uzito wa dhamana uliyochukua?'
¿ Not these [nations] all of them on him a saying will they lift up and a mocking song riddles to him so may someone say? woe to! the [one who] increases [that which] not [belongs] to him until when? and [one who] makes heavy on himself pledge[s].
7 Wale wanao ngojea kwako hawatainuka ghafla? na wale wanaokutetemesha kuamka? Utakuwa mwathirika kwaajili yao.
¿ Not suddenly will they arise [those who] pay interest to you and may they awake? [those who will] make tremble you and you will become plunder for them.
8 Kwasababu umeteka nyara watu wengi, mabaki yote ya watu, yatakuteka nyara wewe. Sababu umemwaga damu nyingi za watu na umetenda kwa uasi kinyume cha nchi, miji, na wote wanaokaa ndani yake.
For you you have plundered nations many they will plunder you all [the] rest of [the] peoples from [the] blood of humankind and [the] violence of [the] land of [the] town and all [those who] dwell in it.
9 Ole kwa yule anayechonga mapato maovu kwaajili ya nyumba yake, hivyo anaweza kutengeneza kiota chake juu kumweka yeye salama mbali na mikono ya uovu.
Woe to! [one who] gains unjust gain evil for house his to set on the high places nest his to deliver himself from [the] hand of harm.
10 Umebuni aibu kwa nyumba yako kwa kuwakata watu wengi, na umefanya dhambi dhidi yako mwenyewe.
You have planned shame for house your by cutting off peoples many and [you have] sinned self your.
11 Sababu jiwe litapaza sauti kutoka ukutani, na pao la mbao litawajibu,
For a stone from [the] wall it will cry out and a rafter from [the] wood it will answer it.
12 'Ole wake yule ajengaye mji kwa damu, na anayeimarisha mji kwa katika uovu.
Woe to! [one who] builds a city by blood and he establishes a town by injustice.
13 Hii haitoki kwa Yahwe wa majeshi kwamba watu wafanye kazi kwa moto na mataifa yote mengine yanachakaa menyewe bila kitu?
¿ [is it] not There! from with Yahweh of hosts so they may labor peoples for [the] sufficiency of fire and nations for [the] sufficiency of vanity they grow weary.
14 Bado nchi itajaa maarifa ya utukufu wa Yahwe kama maji yanavyojaza bahari.
For it will be filled the earth to know [the] glory of Yahweh like waters [which] they cover over [the] sea.
15 'Ole wake yule anayemfanya jirani yake alewe, wewe ambaye unaye ongeza sumu uwafanye walewe ili uweze kutazama uchi wao.
Woe to! [one who] makes drink neighbor his [you are] pouring out rage your and even you make [them] drunk so as to look on nakedness their.
16 Utavimbiwa na aibu zaidi kuliko utukufu. Kunywa hiyo vilevile, na funua uchi wako mwenyewe. Kikombe cha mkono wa kuume wa Yahwe utakuja katika kukugeukia wewe, na aibu itafunika heshima yako.
You are satisfied shame more than honor drink also you and be counted as uncircumcised it will come round to you [the] cup of [the] right [hand] of Yahweh and disgrace [will be] over honor your.
17 Vurugu iliyofanywa kwa Lebanoni itakufunika na uharibifu wa wanyama utakuogopesha. Sababu umemwaga damu za watu na umetenda kwa uasi dhidi ya ile nchi, miji, na wote wanaokaa humo.
For [the] violence of Lebanon it will cover you and [the] devastation of animals it will terrify them from [the] blood of humankind and [the] violence of [the] land of [the] town and all [those who] dwell in it.
18 Sanamu iliyochongwa inakufaidia nini? Sababu yule aliyeichonga hiyo, au ambaye kaisubu kwa kuiyeyusha metali, ni mwalimu wa uongo; Sababu anaiamini kazi ya mikono yake anapotengeneza miungu hii isiyoongea.
What? does it profit a carved image that he has carved it [one who] formed it a molten image and [one which] teaches falsehood for he relies [one who] formed form his on it to make idols dumb.
19 'Ole kwa yule anayeuambia ubao, Amka! Au kwa jiwe lisiloongea, Inuka!' Vitu hivi vinafundisha? Angalia, hiki juu kimefunikwa kwa dhahabu na fedha, lakini ndani yake hakipumui kabisa.
Woe to! [one who] says to wood wake up! awake to a stone of silence it will it teach? there! it [is] sheathed gold and silver and any breath not [is] within it.
20 Lakini Yahwe yumo katika hekalu lake takatifu! Nchi yote iwe kimya mbele zake.
And Yahweh [is] in [the] temple of holiness his hush! from before him all the earth.
