< Habakkuk 3 >

1 The prayer of Habakkuk the prophet, in the form of an ode.
O KA pule a Habakuka, ke kaula, me ka mele lanakila.
2 O Jehovah, I have heard thy words, and tremble. O Jehovah, revive thy work in the midst of the years, In the midst of the years make it known, In wrath remember mercy!
E Iehova, ua lohe au i ka mea au i olelo ai, a weliweli iho la au: E Iehova, e hoala hou mai oe i kau hana iwaena o na makahiki, Iwaena o na makahiki e hoike mai; Iloko o ka huhu, e hoomanao mai oe i ke aloha.
3 God cometh from Teman, And the Holy One from mount Paran; His glory covereth the heavens, And the earth is full of his praise.
O ke Akua ka i hele mai, mai Temana mai, A o ka Mea Hemolele mai ka mauna o Parana mai. (Sila) Uhi mai kona nani i ka lani, A ua piha ka honua i kona hoolea.
4 His brightness is as the light; Rays stream forth from his hand, And there is the hiding-place of his power.
O kona olinolino ua like me ka la, Mai kona lima mai na kukuna malamalama, A malaila ka huna ana o kona mana.
5 Before him goeth the pestilence, And the plague followeth his steps.
Imua ona i hele aku ai ke ahulau, A o ka make wela i hele aku ma kona mau wawae.
6 He standeth, and measureth the earth; He beholdeth, and maketh the nations tremble; The everlasting mountains are broken asunder; The eternal hills sink down; The eternal paths are trodden by him.
Ku ae la ia, a ana aku la i ka honua, Nana ae la ia, a hoohaalulu i na lahuikanaka; Ua hooheleleiia na mauna kahiko, A ua hoohaahaaia na puu mau loa; Oia kona mau aoao i ka wa kahiko.
7 I see the tents of Cushan in affliction, And the canopies of the land of Midian tremble.
Ike aku la au i na halelewa o Kusana i ka popilikia: A haalulu na paku-halelewa o ka aina o Midiana.
8 Is the anger of Jehovah kindled against the rivers, Is thy wrath against the rivers, Is thy indignation against the floods, That thou ridest on with thy horses, Upon thy chariots of victory?
Ua huhu anei o Iehova i na muliwai? A ua ku e kou inaina i na kahawai? Ua maka e kou huhu i ke kai? I ka manawa au i holo ai maluna o kou mau lio, kou mau halekaa o ke ola?
9 Thy bow is made bare; Curses are the arrows of thy word; Thou causest rivers to break forth from the earth.
Ua wehe loa ia kau kakaka, o na ihe ehiku, oia ka olelo. (Sila) Ua hoonahae oe i ka honua me na muliwai.
10 The mountains see thee and tremble; The flood of waters overflows; The deep uttereth his voice, And lifteth up his hands on high.
Ike aku na mauna ia oe, haalulu iho la; A holo aku la ka wai nui, A hoopuka mai ka hohonu i kona leo, Hookiekie ae la ia i kona mau lima iluna.
11 The sun and the moon remain in their habitation, At the light of thine arrows which fly, At the brightness of the lightning of thy spear.
O ka la, o ka mahina, ku malie ma ko laua wahi: Ma ka malamalama o kou mau pua, hele aku la lakou, A ma ka wakawaka o kau ihe huali.
12 Thou marchest through the land in indignation; Thou thrashest the nations in anger;
Me ka inaina i hele aku oe mawaena o ka aina, Me ka huhu i hahi iho oe i na lahuikanaka,
13 Thou goest forth for the deliverance of thy people, For the deliverance of thine anointed. Thou smitest the head of the house of the wicked; Thou destroyest the foundation even to the neck.
Ua hele aku oe e hoola i kou poe kanaka, E hoopakele i kou mea i poniia; Ua ulupa oe i ke poo o ka mea no ka ohana hewa, Ua hoike ae i ka hohonu, A hiki i ka a-i. (Sila)
14 Thou piercest with his own spears the chief of his captains, Who rushed like a whirlwind to scatter us; Who exulted, as if they should devour the distressed in a hiding-place.
Ua o hou aku oe i ke poo o kona poe alii, me kana mau ihe, Holo mai lakou, me he ino la, e hoopuehu ia'u; O ko lakou olioli, ua like me ka olioli o ka luku ana i ka mea ilihune ma kahi malu.
15 Thou ridest through the sea with thy horses, Through the raging of mighty waters.
Ua hele oe iwaena o ke kai me kou poe lio, Ma ke aleale o na wai nui.
16 I have heard, and my heart trembleth; My lips quiver at the voice; Rottenness entereth into my bones, and my knees tremble, That I must wait in silence for the day of trouble, When the invader shall come up against my people!
Lohe iho la au, a haalulu ko'u opu; Haalulu kuu lehelehe i ka leo; Komo mai ka popopo iloko o kou mau iwi, A haalulu au ma kuu wahi malalo; He oiaio, e hoomaha au i ka la o ka popilikia, A pii ku e mai na kanaka, e hoopilikia mai.
17 For the fig-tree shall not blossom, And there shall be no fruit upon the vine; The produce of the olive shall fail, And the fields shall yield no food. The flocks shall he cut off from the folds, And there shall be no herd in the stalls.
I ka manawa e pua ole mai ai ka laau fiku, Aole hoi he hua ma na kumu waina; A e mae ka hua o ka laau oliva, Aole hoi e hua mai na kihapai i ka ai; A e okiia'ku ka poe hipa mai ka pahipa aku, Aole hoi he bipi maloko o na wahi hanai bipi;
18 Yet will I rejoice in Jehovah, I will exult in God, my helper.
E olioli no au iloko o Iehova, E hauoli no au iloko o ke Akua o kuu ola.
19 The Lord Jehovah is my strength; He will make my feet like the hind's, And cause me to walk upon my high places. “To the leader of the music on my stringed instruments.”
O Iehova ka Haku, oia ko'u ikaika, A e hoohalike mai ia i ko'u wawae, me na wawae o na dia, A e hoohele no ia ia'u maluna o kuu mau wahi kiekie. Na ka luna mele ma na mea kani.
