Habakkuk 1
1 The burden that Habakkuk the prophet saw.
先知哈巴谷所得的默示。
2 How long, O Lord, shall I cry out, and you will not heed? Shall I shout to you while suffering violence, and you will not save?
他说：耶和华啊！我呼求你， 你不应允，要到几时呢？ 我因强暴哀求你，你还不拯救。
3 Why have you revealed to me iniquity and hardship, to see plunder and injustice opposite me? And there has been judgment, but the opposition is more powerful.
你为何使我看见罪孽？ 你为何看着奸恶而不理呢？ 毁灭和强暴在我面前， 又起了争端和相斗的事。
4 Because of this, the law has been torn apart, and judgment does not persevere to its conclusion. For the impious prevail against the just. Because of this, a perverse judgment is issued.
因此律法放松， 公理也不显明； 恶人围困义人， 所以公理显然颠倒。
5 Gaze among the nations, and see. Admire, and be astounded. For a work has been done in your days, which no one will believe when it is told.
耶和华说：你们要向列国中观看， 大大惊奇； 因为在你们的时候，我行一件事， 虽有人告诉你们，你们总是不信。
6 For behold, I will raise up the Chaldeans, a bitter and swift people, marching across the width of the earth, to possess tabernacles not their own.
我必兴起迦勒底人， 就是那残忍暴躁之民，通行遍地， 占据那不属自己的住处。
7 It is dreadful and terrible. From themselves, judgment and their burden will issue.
他威武可畏， 判断和势力都任意发出。
8 Their horses are more nimble than leopards and swifter than wolves in the evening; their horsemen will spread out. And then their horsemen will approach from far away; they will fly like the eagle, hurrying to devour.
他的马比豹更快， 比晚上的豺狼更猛。 马兵踊跃争先， 都从远方而来； 他们飞跑如鹰抓食，
9 They will all approach towards the prey; their face is like a burning wind. And they will gather captives together like sand.
都为行强暴而来， 定住脸面向前， 将掳掠的人聚集，多如尘沙。
10 And concerning kings, he will triumph, and sovereign rulers will be his laughingstock, and he will laugh over every fortress, and he will transport a rampart and seize it.
他们讥诮君王，笑话首领， 嗤笑一切保障，筑垒攻取。
11 Then his spirit will be altered, and he will cross over and fall. Such is his strength from his god.
他以自己的势力为神， 像风猛然扫过，显为有罪。
12 Have you not existed from the beginning, Lord my God, my holy one, and so we shall not die? Lord, you have stationed him for judgment, and you have established that his strength will be swept away.
耶和华—我的 神，我的圣者啊， 你不是从亘古而有吗？ 我们必不致死。 耶和华啊，你派定他为要刑罚人； 磐石啊，你设立他为要惩治人。
13 Your eyes are pure, you do not behold evil, and you cannot look towards iniquity. Why do you look upon the agents of iniquity, and remain silent, while the impious is devouring one who is more just than himself?
你眼目清洁， 不看邪僻，不看奸恶； 行诡诈的，你为何看着不理呢？ 恶人吞灭比自己公义的， 你为何静默不语呢？
14 And you will make men like the fish of the sea and like the creeping things that have no ruler.
你为何使人如海中的鱼， 又如没有管辖的爬物呢？
15 He lifted up everything with his hook. He drew them in with his dragnet, and gathered them into his netting. Over this, he will rejoice and exult.
他用钩钩住，用网捕获， 用拉网聚集他们； 因此，他欢喜快乐，
16 For this reason, he will offer victims to his dragnet, and he will sacrifice to his netting. For through them, his portion has been made fat, and his meals elite.
就向网献祭，向网烧香， 因他由此得肥美的分和富裕的食物。
17 Because of this, therefore, he expands his dragnet and will not be lenient in continually putting to death the peoples.
他岂可屡次倒空网罗， 将列国的人时常杀戮，毫不顾惜呢？
