Habakuk 3
King James Version
AFR DVK
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.
o HERE, ek het u spraak gehoor, en was bevrees: o HERE, verlewendig u werk in die midde van die jare, in die midde van die jare maak dit bekend; in toorn onthou barmhartigheid.
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.
God het van Teman gekom, en die Heilige van die berg Paran. Sela. Sy heerlikheid het die hemele bedek, en die aarde was vol van sy lof.
4
And [his] brightness was as the light; he had horns [coming] out of his hand: and there [was] the hiding of his power.
En sy helderheid was soos die lig; hy het horings uit sy hand gehad: en daar was die verberging van sy mag.
5
Before him went the pestilence, and burning coals went forth at his feet.
Voor Hom het die pes gegaan, en brandende kole het by sy voete uitgegaan.
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.
Hy het gestaan, en die aarde gemeet: Hy het gekyk, en die nasies uitmekaar gedryf; en die ewige berge is verstrooi, die ewige heuwels het gebuig: sy weë is ewig.
7
I saw the tents of Cushan in affliction: [and] the curtains of the land of Midian did tremble.
Ek het die tente van Kusan in benoudheid gesien: en die gordyne van die land van Midian het bewe.
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?
Was die HERE toornig teen die riviere? was u toorn teen die riviere? was u grimmigheid teen die see, dat U op u perde gery het en u strydwaens van heil?
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.
U boog is heeltemal ontbloot, volgens die eedswure van die stamme, selfs u woord. Sela. U het die aarde met riviere gekloof.
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.
Die berge het U gesien, en hulle het gebewe: die oorstroming van die waters het verbygegaan: die diepte het sy stem laat hoor, en sy hande omhoog gelig.
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.
Die son en maan het in hulle woning gestaan: by die lig van u pyle het hulle gegaan, en by die skyn van u glinsterende spies.
12
Thou didst march through the land in indignation, thou didst thresh the heathen in anger.
U het in verontwaardiging deur die land gemarsjeer, U het die heidene in toorn gedorp.
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.
U het uitgegaan vir die heil van u volk, selfs vir die heil met u gesalfde; U het die hoof uit die huis van die goddelose gewond, deur die fondamente tot die nek toe te ontbloot. Sela.
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.
U het die hoof van sy dorpe met sy stokke deurgeboor: hulle het soos ‚'n dwarrelwind uitgekom om my te verstrooi: hulle vreugde was om die armes in die geheim te verslind.
15
Thou didst walk through the sea with thine horses, [through] the heap of great waters.
U het deur die see met u perde gegaan, deur die hoop van groot 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.
Toe ek gehoor het, het my maag gebewe, my lippe het by die stem gebewe: verrotting het in my bene ingegaan, en ek het in myself gebewe, dat ek mag rus in die dag van benoudheid: wanneer hy tot die volk opkom, hy sal hulle met sy troepe binnedring.
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:
Alhoewel die vyeboom nie sal bloei nie, en daar geen vrug aan die wingerde sal wees nie; die arbeid van die olyfboom sal misluk, en die velde sal geen voedsel oplewer nie; die kudde sal van die kraal afgesny word, en daar sal geen trop in die stalle wees nie:
18
Yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will joy in the God of my salvation.
Tog sal ek in die HERE juig, ek sal my verheug in die God van my heil.
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.
Die HERE God is my sterkte, en Hy sal my voete soos dié van die hindes maak, en Hy sal my op my hoë plekke laat wandel. Vir die hoofmusikus op my snaarinstrumente.
