La oración de Habacuc
3 Oración del profeta Habacuc. Según sigionot.[a]
2 Señor, he sabido de tu fama;
tiemblo delante de tus obras, Señor.
Repítelas en nuestros días,
dalas a conocer en nuestro tiempo;
en tu ira, ten presente tu misericordia.
3 Dios viene desde Temán;
el Santo, desde el monte de Parán. Selah
Su gloria cubre el cielo
y su alabanza llena la tierra.
4 Su resplandor es como el sol;
rayos brotan de sus manos;
su poder se esconde en sus manos.
5 Una plaga mortal lo precede
y una epidemia sigue sus pasos.
6 Se detiene y la tierra se estremece;
lanza una mirada y las naciones tiemblan.
Se desmoronan las antiguas montañas
y se desploman las viejas colinas,
pero sus caminos son eternos.
7 He visto afligidos los campamentos de Cusán,
y angustiadas las moradas de Madián.
8 ¿Te enojaste, oh Señor, con los ríos?
¿Estuviste airado contra las corrientes?
¿Tan enfurecido estabas contra el mar
que cabalgaste en tus caballos
y montaste en tus carros victoriosos?
9 Descubriste tu arco,
llenaste de flechas tu aljaba.[b] Selah
Tus ríos dividen la tierra;
10 las montañas te ven y se retuercen.
Pasan los torrentes de agua;
el abismo ruge y levanta sus olas en lo alto.
11 El sol y la luna se detienen en el cielo
por el fulgor de tus veloces flechas,
por el deslumbrante brillo de tu lanza.
12 Indignado, marchas sobre la tierra;
en tu ira aplastas las naciones.
13 Saliste a liberar a tu pueblo,
saliste a salvar a tu ungido.
Aplastaste al rey de la perversa dinastía,
¡lo desnudaste de pies a cabeza! Selah
14 Con su propia lanza atravesaste la cabeza de sus guerreros
que enfurecidos querían dispersarnos,
que con placer arrogante se lanzaron
como quien devora en secreto a un pobre.[c]
15 Pisoteaste el mar con tus corceles
que agitaban las inmensas aguas.
16 Al oírlo, se estremecieron mis entrañas;
a su voz, me temblaron los labios;
la debilidad entró en los huesos
y se me aflojaron las piernas.
Pero yo espero con paciencia el día en que la calamidad
vendrá sobre la nación que nos invade.
17 Aunque la higuera no florezca
ni haya frutos en las vides;
aunque falle la cosecha del olivo
y los campos no produzcan alimentos;
aunque en el redil no haya ovejas
ni vaca alguna en los establos;
18 aun así, yo me regocijaré en el Señor.
¡Me alegraré en el Dios de mi salvación!
19 El Señor y Dios es mi fuerza;
da a mis pies la ligereza de una gacela
y me hace caminar por las alturas.

Habakkuk 3

Habakkuk 3
World English Bible
3 A prayer of Habakkuk, the prophet, set to victorious music.
2 Yahweh, I have heard of your fame.
I stand in awe of your deeds, Yahweh.
Renew your work in the middle of the years.
In the middle of the years make it known.
In wrath, you remember mercy.
3 God came from Teman,
the Holy One from Mount Paran. Selah.
His glory covered the heavens,
and his praise filled the earth.
4 His splendor is like the sunrise.
Rays shine from his hand, where his power is hidden.
5 Plague went before him,
and pestilence followed his feet.
6 He stood, and shook the earth.
He looked, and made the nations tremble.
The ancient mountains were crumbled.
The age-old hills collapsed.
His ways are eternal.
7 I saw the tents of Cushan in affliction.
The dwellings of the land of Midian trembled.
8 Was Yahweh displeased with the rivers?
Was your anger against the rivers,
or your wrath against the sea,
that you rode on your horses,
on your chariots of salvation?
9 You uncovered your bow.
You called for your sworn arrows. Selah.
You split the earth with rivers.
10 The mountains saw you, and were afraid.
The storm of waters passed by.
The deep roared and lifted up its hands on high.
11 The sun and moon stood still in the sky
at the light of your arrows as they went,
at the shining of your glittering spear.
12 You marched through the land in wrath.
You threshed the nations in anger.
13 You went out for the salvation of your people,
for the salvation of your anointed.
You crushed the head of the land of wickedness.
You stripped them head to foot. Selah.
14 You pierced the heads of his warriors with their own spears.
They came as a whirlwind to scatter me,
gloating as if to devour the wretched in secret.
15 You trampled the sea with your horses,
churning mighty waters.
16 I heard, and my body trembled.
My lips quivered at the voice.
Rottenness enters into my bones, and I tremble in my place
because I must wait quietly for the day of trouble,
for the coming up of the people who invade us.
17 For even though the fig tree doesn’t flourish,
nor fruit be in the vines,
the labor of the olive fails,
the fields yield no food,
the flocks are cut off from the fold,
and there is no herd in the stalls,
18 yet I will rejoice in Yahweh.
I will be joyful in the God of my salvation!
19 Yahweh, the Lord,[a] is my strength.
He makes my feet like deer’s feet,
and enables me to go in high places.
For the music director, on my stringed instruments.

Habakkuk 3
King James Version
3 A prayer of Habakkuk the prophet upon Shigionoth.
2 O Lord, I have heard thy speech, and was afraid: O Lord, revive thy work in the midst of the years, in the midst of the years make known; in wrath remember mercy.
3 God came from Teman, and the Holy One from mount Paran. Selah. His glory covered the heavens, and the earth was full of his praise.
4 And his brightness was as the light; he had horns coming out of his hand: and there was the hiding of his power.
5 Before him went the pestilence, and burning coals went forth at his feet.
6 He stood, and measured the earth: he beheld, and drove asunder the nations; and the everlasting mountains were scattered, the perpetual hills did bow: his ways are everlasting.
7 I saw the tents of Cushan in affliction: and the curtains of the land of Midian did tremble.
8 Was the Lord displeased against the rivers? was thine anger against the rivers? was thy wrath against the sea, that thou didst ride upon thine horses and thy chariots of salvation?
9 Thy bow was made quite naked, according to the oaths of the tribes, even thy word. Selah. Thou didst cleave the earth with rivers.
10 The mountains saw thee, and they trembled: the overflowing of the water passed by: the deep uttered his voice, and lifted up his hands on high.
11 The sun and moon stood still in their habitation: at the light of thine arrows they went, and at the shining of thy glittering spear.
12 Thou didst march through the land in indignation, thou didst thresh the heathen in anger.
13 Thou wentest forth for the salvation of thy people, even for salvation with thine anointed; thou woundedst the head out of the house of the wicked, by discovering the foundation unto the neck. Selah.
14 Thou didst strike through with his staves the head of his villages: they came out as a whirlwind to scatter me: their rejoicing was as to devour the poor secretly.
15 Thou didst walk through the sea with thine horses, through the heap of great waters.
16 When I heard, my belly trembled; my lips quivered at the voice: rottenness entered into my bones, and I trembled in myself, that I might rest in the day of trouble: when he cometh up unto the people, he will invade them with his troops.
17 Although the fig tree shall not blossom, neither shall fruit be in the vines; the labour of the olive shall fail, and the fields shall yield no meat; the flock shall be cut off from the fold, and there shall be no herd in the stalls:
18 Yet I will rejoice in the Lord, I will joy in the God of my salvation.
19 The Lord God is my strength, and he will make my feet like hinds' feet, and he will make me to walk upon mine high places. To the chief singer on my stringed instruments.
