Habakkuk 2
1 [After I said that, I said to myself, ] “I will climb up into my watchtower, and stand there at my guard post. I will wait there to find out what Yahweh will say, what he will reply to what I have complained about.”
Ako motindog sa akong bantayan, ug mopahaluna ako ibabaw sa lantawan, ug molantaw ako sa pagtan-aw kong unsa ang iyang igasulti kanako, ug kong unsa ang akong igatubag mahatungod sa akong sumbong.
2 Then Yahweh replied to me, “Write plainly on tablets [what I am revealing to you in] this vision, [and then read it to a messenger] in order that he can run with it [to tell it to] other people.
Ug si Jehova mitubag kanako, ug miingon: Isulat ang panan-awon, ug himoang matin-aw diha sa mga sulatanan, aron modalagan kadtong magabasa niini.
3 In this vision [I will be talking about things that will happen] in the future. Now is not the time when those things will happen, but they certainly will happen, and when they occur, they will occur quickly, and they will not be delayed. Now you [want those things to happen immediately, but] they are not happening. But wait patiently for them [to happen]!
Kay ang panan-awon alang pa sa natudlong panahon, ug kini nagadali paingon sa katapusan, ug dili magbakak; bisan kini malangan, paabuta kini; kay kini moabut gayud, kini dili magalangan.
4 Think about the proud [people of Babylonia]! They are certainly not doing what is righteous. But people who are righteous will live because they faithfully [do what I want them to do].
Ania karon, ang iyang kalag nagapaburot; kini dili matarung diha kaniya; apan ang matarung mabuhi tungod sa iyang pagtoo.
5 If people [trust in their wealth], they will deceive themselves, and proud people are never able to rest. [It is as though] the greedy people [of Babylonia open their mouths] as wide as the place where dead people are, and they never have enough, like [the place where] dead people go never has enough dead people [PRS]. The [armies of Babylonia] conquer many nations for themselves, and capture all their people. (Sheol h7585)
Oo, labut pa, ang vino mabudhion, tawo nga mapahitas-on, nga dili mopabilin sa iyang balay; nga nagapadaku sa iyang tinguha maingon sa Sheol, ug siya maingon sa kamatayon, ug dili matagbaw, apan nagatigum sa mga nasud ngadto kaniya, ug nagatapok sa mga katawohan ngadto kaniya. (Sheol h7585)
6 But [soon] all those [whom they have captured] will ridicule [the soldiers from Babylonia]! They will make fun of them, saying, ‘Terrible things will happen to you who have stolen things [from other countries]! You got many things by forcing people to give them to you. [But you certainly will not keep those things] for a long time [RHQ]!’
Dili ba kining tanan mohisgut usa ka sambingay batok kaniya, ug sa usa ka mabiaybiayon nga sanglitanan batok kaniya, ug magaingon: Alaut siya nga nagapatubo niadtong dili iya! hangtud anus-a kana? ug kadtong nagalulan sa iyang kaugalingon tungod sa mga prenda nga inagaw!
7 Suddenly those whom you (oppressed/treated cruelly) will cause you to tremble, and they will take away all the things that you have stolen from them.
(Sila) dili ba manindog sa dihadiha kadtong mopaak kanimo, ug dili ba mahigmata kadtong magasamok kanimo, ug ikaw mahimong tinikas alang kanila?
8 You stole things from the people of many nations. You murdered [MTY] people of many people-groups, and you destroyed their land and their cities. So those who are still alive will steal valuable things from you.
Tungod kay imong gitulis ang daghang mga nasud, ang tanang nanghibilin sa mga katawohan magatulis kanimo, tungod sa giula nga dugo sa mga tawo, ug sa pagpanlupig nga nahimo diha sa yuta, sa ciudad, ug sa tanang nanagpuyo diha.
9 Terrible things will happen to you [people of Babylonia] who build big houses with money that you got by forcing others to give it to you. You are proud and you think that your houses will be safe because you have built them in places where you can easily defend them.
Alaut kadtong nagakuha ug dautang abut alang sa iyang balay, aron ikapahamutang niya ang iyang salag sa itaas, aron maluwas siya gikan sa kamot sa dautan.
10 But because you have destroyed others, you have caused your family [MTY] to be shamed/disgraced, and you yourselves will be killed.
Ikaw nagmugna ug kaulaw sa imong balay pinaagi sa paglaglag sa daghanang katawohan, ug nakasala ka batok sa imong kalag.
11 [It is as though] the stones in the walls [of your houses] cry out to accuse you, and [it is as though] the beams [in your ceilings] also say the same things.
Kay ang bato mosinggit sa Dios gikan sa kuta, ug ang sagbayan motubag niana gikan sa tigkahoy.
12 Terrible things will happen to you [people of Babylonia] who kill people [MTY] in order to build cities, cities that you build by using money that you have gotten by committing crimes.
Alaut kadtong nagatukod sa usa ka lungsod pinaagi sa pag-ula sa dugo, ug nagapatindog sa usa ka ciudad pinaagi sa kasal-anan!
13 But the Commander of the armies of angels has [RHQ] declared that everything that is built by people who do things like that [will be destroyed by] fire; they will have worked hard uselessly.
Ania karon, dili ba gikan kang Jehova sa mga panon nga ang katawohan nagabuhat alang sa kalayo, ug ang mga nasud nagabudlay sa ilang kaugalingon alang sa kakawangan?
14 But [in contrast], like [SIM] the oceans are filled with water, the earth will be filled with [people who] know that Yahweh is very great.
Kay ang kalibutan pagapun-on sa ihibalo sa himaya ni Jehova, maingon nga ang katubigan nagatabon sa dagat.
15 Terrible things will happen to you [people of Babylonia] who cause people who live in nearby countries to become drunk. You force them to drink a lot of wine from wineskins [until they are drunk and then they walk around] naked, in order that you can see that.
Alaut kadtong nagapainum sa makahubog sa iyang isigkatawo, kanimo nga nagadugang sa imong hilo, ug nagapahubog kaniya usab, aron ikaw makasud-ong sa ilang pagkahubo!
16 But you are the ones who [soon] will be disgraced instead of being honored. [It will be as though you are forced to] drink [a lot of wine] in order that you will also stagger [around, drunk]. You will drink the wine [that symbolizes that Yahweh will punish you], and he will cause you to be disgraced instead of being greatly respected [any more].
Ikaw nabuhong na sa kaulaw ug dili sa himaya: uminum ka usab, ug manig-ingon ka sa usa nga walay-circuncicion; ang copa sa kamot nga too ni Jehova moanha kanimo, ug ang mahugaw nga kaulaw magatabon sa imong himaya.
17 You did violent [PRS] things to [the people in] Lebanon, and you killed the wild animals [there], but you will be punished severely for doing that. You have killed [MTY] many people and you have destroyed their lands and their cities.
Kay ang kadaut nga gihimo sa Libano magaputos kanimo, ug ang pagkalaglag sa mga mananap, nga nakapahadlok kanila; tungod sa giula nga dugo sa tawo, ug sa pagpanlupig nga gihimo diha sa yuta, sa ciudad, ug sa tanang nanagpuyo diha.
18 [You people of Babylonia need to know that your] idols are completely [RHQ] useless, because it is people who made them. Statues that have been carved or made in a mold deceive you. Those who trust in idols are trusting in things that they themselves created, things that cannot speak!
Unsa ang kapuslanan sa linilok nga larawan, nga gililok sa nagabuhat niana; ingon man ang tinunaw nga larawan, bisan pa ang magtutudlo sa kabakakan, sa pagkaagi nga kadtong nagahimo sa iyang dagway nagasalig man niana, aron sa paghimo nga amang sa mga larawan?
19 Terrible things will happen to you who say to lifeless idols that are made of wood, ‘Wake up!’ Idols certainly cannot [RHQ] tell you what you should do; they [look nice/beautiful because] they are covered with silver and gold, but they are not alive.
Alaut siya nga nagaingon sa kahoy: Pagmata na; ug sa amang nga bato: Tumindog ka! Makatudlo ba kini? Ania karon, kini gihal-opan sa bulawan ug salapi, ug sa sulod niana wala gayud ing gininhawa.
20 But Yahweh is in his holy temple; everyone on the earth should be silent in his presence.”
Apan si Jehova ania sa iyang balaan nga templo: pahiluma sa atubangan niya ang tibook nga kalibutan.
