耶和华的威严和权能

哈巴谷先知的祷告,配激动的音调。

耶和华啊!我听见你的声音,惧怕你的作为;

求你在这些年间复兴,在这些年间彰显,

发怒的时候以怜悯为怀。

 神由提幔而来,圣者从巴兰山临到。(细拉)

他的荣光弥漫穹苍,赞美他的声音响彻大地。

他的辉煌如光,手中四射光芒,就在其中隐藏着能力。

瘟疫在他面前行走,灾病在他脚下发出。

他站立,震撼全地;

他观看,惊散列国。

永在的山崩裂,长存的岭塌陷;

他的道路存到永远。

我看见古珊的帐棚遭难,米甸地的帐幕惊惶。

耶和华啊!你骑上你的马,乘驾得胜的战车,

难道是恼怒江河、向江河发怒、向海洋泄愤?

你的弓显露,你的箭上弦。(原文意义不明,这句参考RSV,JB等译本翻译)(细拉)

你裂开大地为江河。

10 诸山见你而颤抖,

众水暴流而过;

深渊发声,举手高扬。

11 日月停在本位,

你的箭发射如光;

你的矛闪烁辉耀。

12 你激愤践踏全地,你怀怒打碎列国。

13 你出来救拔子民,拯救你所膏立的。

你击打恶人的房顶,

使根基全然显露(原文作“直到颈项”,这是闪族语言惯用语,意即“到了极点”〔参赛8:8;诗75:5〕;另一可能是“大石”、“盘石”的意思)。(细拉)

14 你用他的枪,刺透他战士的头。

他们来如暴风,把我们驱散。

他们的喜好,是暗中吞噬穷人。

15 你乘马驰骋海上,大水汹涌翻腾。

16 我一听见,就全身发抖;

因这声音,我嘴唇震颤。

腐烂侵蚀我骨,我在站立之地战兢。

我静候灾难之日,犯境的民上来。

信心之歌

17 无花果树纵不发芽,葡萄树不结果,

橄榄树无所出,田里无收成,

圈内的羊被剪除,棚里也没有牛,

18 我却要因耶和华欢喜,

以救我的 神为乐。

19 主耶和华是我的力量,

他使我的脚快如母鹿的蹄,在高地上行走。

交诗班长,用丝弦的乐器伴奏。

哈巴谷的祷告

以下是哈巴谷先知的祷告,采用流离调[a]

耶和华啊,我听过你的威名;
耶和华啊,我对你的作为充满敬畏。
求你如今再次彰显你的作为,
求你发怒的时候仍以怜悯为念。

上帝从提幔来,
圣者从巴兰山来。(细拉)
祂的荣耀遮蔽诸天,
颂赞祂的声音响彻大地。
祂的荣光犹如太阳的光辉,
祂的手射出光芒,
其中蕴藏着大能。
瘟疫行在祂前面,
灾病跟在祂脚后。
祂停下,大地就震动;
祂观看,万民就战栗。
古老的山岳崩裂,
远古的丘陵塌陷,
但祂的作为永远不变。
我看见古珊的帐篷遭难,
米甸人的幔子颤抖。
耶和华啊,你是向江河发怒吗?
你乘着得胜的战车而来,
是向江河生气吗?
是向海洋发怒吗?
你拿出弓,要射出许多箭羽。(细拉)
你以江河分开大地。
10 群山看见你就战栗,
大雨倾盆,
深渊翻腾,波浪滔天。
11 你射出的箭闪闪发光,
你的枪熠熠生辉,
以致日月都停在天上。
12 你怀着烈怒走遍大地,
践踏万国。
13 你出来是为了拯救你的子民,
拯救你膏立的王。
你打垮邪恶之人的首领,
从头到脚彻底毁灭他们。(细拉)
14 他们的军队如旋风而至,
要驱散我们,
他们以暗中吞噬贫民为乐,
但你用他们的矛刺透他们的头颅。
15 你骑马践踏汹涌的大海。
16 我听到这些,
就胆战心惊,嘴唇哆嗦,
四肢无力,双腿发抖。
但我仍要静候灾难临到入侵者的日子。

17 即使无花果树不发芽,
葡萄树不结果,
橄榄树无收成,
田地不产粮,
圈里没有羊,
棚里没有牛,
18 我仍要因耶和华而欢欣,
因拯救我的上帝而喜乐。
19 主耶和华是我的力量,
祂使我的脚如母鹿的蹄,
稳行在高处。

这首歌交给乐长,用弦乐器伴奏。

Habakkuk’s Prayer

A prayer of Habakkuk the prophet. On shigionoth.[a](A)

Lord, I have heard(B) of your fame;
    I stand in awe(C) of your deeds, Lord.(D)
Repeat(E) them in our day,
    in our time make them known;
    in wrath remember mercy.(F)

God came from Teman,(G)
    the Holy One(H) from Mount Paran.[b](I)
His glory covered the heavens(J)
    and his praise filled the earth.(K)
His splendor was like the sunrise;(L)
    rays flashed from his hand,
    where his power(M) was hidden.
Plague(N) went before him;
    pestilence followed his steps.
He stood, and shook the earth;
    he looked, and made the nations tremble.
The ancient mountains crumbled(O)
    and the age-old hills(P) collapsed(Q)
    but he marches on forever.(R)
I saw the tents of Cushan in distress,
    the dwellings of Midian(S) in anguish.(T)

Were you angry with the rivers,(U) Lord?
    Was your wrath against the streams?
Did you rage against the sea(V)
    when you rode your horses
    and your chariots to victory?(W)
You uncovered your bow,
    you called for many arrows.(X)
You split the earth with rivers;
10     the mountains saw you and writhed.(Y)
Torrents of water swept by;
    the deep roared(Z)
    and lifted its waves(AA) on high.

11 Sun and moon stood still(AB) in the heavens
    at the glint of your flying arrows,(AC)
    at the lightning(AD) of your flashing spear.
12 In wrath you strode through the earth
    and in anger you threshed(AE) the nations.
13 You came out(AF) to deliver(AG) your people,
    to save your anointed(AH) one.
You crushed(AI) the leader of the land of wickedness,
    you stripped him from head to foot.
14 With his own spear you pierced his head
    when his warriors stormed out to scatter us,(AJ)
gloating as though about to devour
    the wretched(AK) who were in hiding.
15 You trampled the sea(AL) with your horses,
    churning the great waters.(AM)

16 I heard and my heart pounded,
    my lips quivered at the sound;
decay crept into my bones,
    and my legs trembled.(AN)
Yet I will wait patiently(AO) for the day of calamity
    to come on the nation invading us.
17 Though the fig tree does not bud
    and there are no grapes on the vines,
though the olive crop fails
    and the fields produce no food,(AP)
though there are no sheep in the pen
    and no cattle in the stalls,(AQ)
18 yet I will rejoice in the Lord,(AR)
    I will be joyful in God my Savior.(AS)

19 The Sovereign Lord is my strength;(AT)
    he makes my feet like the feet of a deer,
    he enables me to tread on the heights.(AU)
