为国认罪

先知哈巴谷所得的默示。

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。 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。 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。

示以迦勒底人必行讨罚

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。 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。 他威武可畏,判断和势力都任意发出。 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。 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 他们讥诮君王,笑话首领,嗤笑一切保障,筑垒攻取。 11 他以自己的势力为神,像风猛然扫过,显为有罪。”

哀叹迦勒底人之恶较其所讨者尤甚

12 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 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 你为何使人如海中的鱼,又如没有管辖的爬物呢? 15 他用钩钩住,用网捕获,用拉网聚集他们。因此他欢喜快乐, 16 就向网献祭,向网烧香,因他由此得肥美的份和富裕的食物。 17 他岂可屡次倒空网罗,将列国的人时常杀戮,毫不顾惜呢?

The prophecy(A) that Habakkuk the prophet received.

Habakkuk’s Complaint

How long,(B) Lord, must I call for help,
    but you do not listen?(C)
Or cry out to you, “Violence!”
    but you do not save?(D)
Why do you make me look at injustice?
    Why do you tolerate(E) wrongdoing?(F)
Destruction and violence(G) are before me;
    there is strife,(H) and conflict abounds.
Therefore the law(I) is paralyzed,
    and justice never prevails.
The wicked hem in the righteous,
    so that justice(J) is perverted.(K)

The Lord’s Answer

“Look at the nations and watch—
    and be utterly amazed.(L)
For I am going to do something in your days
    that you would not believe,
    even if you were told.(M)
I am raising up the Babylonians,[a](N)
    that ruthless and impetuous people,
who sweep across the whole earth(O)
    to seize dwellings not their own.(P)
They are a feared and dreaded people;(Q)
    they are a law to themselves
    and promote their own honor.
Their horses are swifter(R) than leopards,
    fiercer than wolves(S) at dusk.
Their cavalry gallops headlong;
    their horsemen come from afar.
They fly like an eagle swooping to devour;
    they all come intent on violence.
Their hordes[b] advance like a desert wind
    and gather prisoners(T) like sand.
10 They mock kings
    and scoff at rulers.(U)
They laugh at all fortified cities;
    by building earthen ramps(V) they capture them.
11 Then they sweep past like the wind(W) and go on—
    guilty people, whose own strength is their god.”(X)

Habakkuk’s Second Complaint

12 Lord, are you not from everlasting?(Y)
    My God, my Holy One,(Z) you[c] will never die.(AA)
You, Lord, have appointed(AB) them to execute judgment;
    you, my Rock,(AC) have ordained them to punish.
13 Your eyes are too pure(AD) to look on evil;
    you cannot tolerate wrongdoing.(AE)
Why then do you tolerate(AF) the treacherous?(AG)
    Why are you silent while the wicked
    swallow up those more righteous than themselves?(AH)
14 You have made people like the fish in the sea,
    like the sea creatures that have no ruler.
15 The wicked(AI) foe pulls all of them up with hooks,(AJ)
    he catches them in his net,(AK)
he gathers them up in his dragnet;
    and so he rejoices and is glad.
16 Therefore he sacrifices to his net
    and burns incense(AL) to his dragnet,
for by his net he lives in luxury
    and enjoys the choicest food.
17 Is he to keep on emptying his net,
    destroying nations without mercy?(AM)
