Habakkuk 1
1 The word which Habakkuk the prophet saw.
Spriedums, ko pravietis Habakuks redzējis.
2 How long, O Lord, will your ears be shut to my voice? I make an outcry to you about violent behaviour, but you do not send salvation.
Cik ilgi, ak Kungs, es kliegšu un Tu nepaklausi? Cik ilgi es Tevi piesaukšu par varas darbu, un Tu neizglābi?
3 Why do you make me see evil-doing, and why are my eyes fixed on wrong? for wasting and violent acts are before me: and there is fighting and bitter argument.
Kāpēc Tu man lieci redzēt netaisnību un skaties uz varas darbu? Jo posts un varas darbs ir manā priekšā, un ķildas rodas un bāršanās ceļas.
4 For this reason the law is feeble and decisions are not effected: for the upright man is circled round by evil-doers; because of which right is twisted.
Tāpēc bauslība paliek bez spēka un tiesa nekad nenāk gaismā, jo bezdievīgie apstāj taisno, tādēļ tiesa tiek pārgrozīta.
5 See among the nations, and take note, and be full of wonder: for in your days I am doing a work in which you will have no belief, even if news of it is given to you.
Skatāties uz tautām un ņemat vērā un brīnīdamies brīnaties, jo Es daru darbu jūsu dienās, ko jūs neticēsiet, kad to stāstīs.
6 For see, I am sending the Chaldaeans, that bitter and quick-moving nation; who go through the wide spaces of the earth to get for themselves living-places which are not theirs.
Jo redzi, Es atvedīšu Kaldejus, rūgtu un čaklu tautu, kas izplētīsies pār zemi un iemantos mājas vietas, kas viņai nepieder.
7 They are greatly to be feared: their right comes from themselves.
Šī ir briesmīga un bijājama(tauta), viņas tiesa un augstība iziet no viņas pašas.
8 And their horses are quicker than leopards and their horsemen more cruel than evening wolves; they come from far away, like an eagle in flight rushing on its food.
Jo viņas zirgi ir čaklāki nekā pardeļi un žiglāki nekā vilki vakarā. Un viņas jātnieki skraida, viņas jātnieki nāk no tālienes un atskrien kā ērglis, kas steidzās uz barību.
9 They are coming all of them with force; the direction of their faces is forward, the number of their prisoners is like the sands of the sea.
Tie visi nāk uz varas darbu; kurp tie savu vaigu griež, tur tie laužās cauri kā rīta vējš un sagrābj cietumniekus kā smiltis.
10 He makes little of kings, rulers are a sport to him; all the strong places are to be laughed at; for he makes earthworks and takes them.
Un viņš apmēda ķēniņus, un valdnieki tam par apsmieklu, viņš apsmej visas stiprās pilis un saber pīšļus un tās uzņem.
11 Then his purpose will be changed, over-stepping the limit; he will make his strength his god.
Tad viņš griežas kā vējš un aizskrien un noziedzās, turēdams savu spēku par savu dievu.
12 Are you not eternal, O Lord my God, my Holy One? for you there is no death. O Lord, he has been ordered by you for our punishment; and by you, O Rock, he has been marked out to put us right.
Vai Tu neesi no iesākuma Tas Kungs, mans Dievs, mans Svētais? Mēs nemirsim. Tu, Kungs, viņu esi iecēlis par sodību, un viņu apstiprinājis, Tu akmens kalns, par pārmācību.
13 Before your holy eyes sin may not be seen, and you are unable to put up with wrong; why, then, are your eyes on the false? why do you say nothing when the evil-doer puts an end to one who is more upright than himself?
Tavas acis ir šķīstas, ka nevar ieredzēt ļaunumu, un grūtumu Tu nevari uzlūkot. Kāpēc Tu gribi skatīties uz atkāpējiem un klusu ciest, kad bezdievīgais to aprij, kas taisnāks nekā viņš?
14 He has made men like the fishes of the sea, like the worms which have no ruler over them.
Un kāpēc Tu cilvēkus gribi darīt kā zivis jūrā, kā līdējus tārpus, kam valdnieka nav?
15 He takes them all up with his hook, he takes them in his net, getting them together in his fishing-net: for which cause he is glad and full of joy.
Viņš visus izvelk ar makšķeri, viņš tos sakrāj savā tīklā, un tos sapulcina savos valgos, tāpēc viņš priecājās un līksmojās.
16 For this reason he makes an offering to his net, burning perfume to his fishing-net; because by them he gets much food and his meat is fat.
Tādēļ viņš upurē savam tīklam un kvēpina saviem valgiem, jo caur tiem viņa tiesa ir palikusi tauka un viņa barība garda.
17 For this cause his net is ever open, and there is no end to his destruction of the nations.
Vai viņš tad tāpēc iztukšos savu tīklu? Vai viņš arvien tautas apkaus bez žēlastības?
