¹A Prayer of Habakkuk the prophet upon Shigionoth.

¹Modlitba proroka Habakuka na šigjonót.

²Jehovah, I heard the report of thee, [and] I feared. Jehovah, revive thy work in the midst of the years, In the midst of the years make [it] known: In wrath remember mercy!

²Hospodine, počul som tvoju povesť, bojím sa, Hospodine, tvoje dielo, oživ ho prostred rokov! Prostred rokov ho oznámiš! V zúrivom hneve budeš pamätať zľutovať sa!

³+God came from Teman, And the Holy One from mount Paran. Selah. His glory covereth the heavens, And the earth is full of his praise.

³Keď išiel Bôh a blížil sa od Témana a Svätý od vrchu Fárana, sélah, jeho sláva pokryla nebesia, a zem bola plná jeho chvály.

⁴And [his] brightness was as the light; Rays [came forth] from his hand; And there was the hiding of his power.

⁴A blesk bol ako svetlo, papršleky mu vychádzaly z jeho ruky, a tam bol úkryt jeho sily.

⁵Before him went the pestilence, And a burning flame went forth at his feet.

⁵Pred jeho tvárou išiel mor, a v jeho zápätí vychádzal páľčivý neduh.

⁶He stood, and measured the earth; He beheld, and discomfited the nations; And the eternal mountains were scattered, The everlasting hills gave way: His ways are everlasting.

⁶Postál a zaklátil zemou, videl a zatriasal národami, a rozpadávaly sa večné vrchy, sklonily sa brehy večnosti; má večné cesty.

⁷I saw the tents of Cushan in affliction; The curtains of the land of Midian did tremble.

⁷Pod trápením som videl stány Kúšana, triasly sa koberce zeme Madiana.

⁸Was Jehovah wrathful with the rivers? Was thine anger against the rivers? Was thy rage against the sea, That thou didst ride upon thy horses, Thy chariots of salvation?

⁸Či na rieky, ó, Hospodine, či azda na rieky bude horieť tvoj hnev, či tvoja prchlivosť proti moru? keď jazdíš na svojich koňoch, vezieš sa na svojich vozoch spasenia?

⁹Thy bow was made naked, The rods [of discipline] sworn according to [thy] word. Selah. Thou didst cleave the earth with rivers.

⁹Obnažiť obnažené je tvoje lučište, splniť prísahy pokolení, dané slovo, sélah. Riekami si rozdelil zem.

¹⁰The mountains saw thee, they were in travail: Torrents of waters passed by; The deep uttered its voice, Lifted up its hands on high.

¹⁰Videly ťa, svíjaly sa vrchy; lejak prešiel ako povodeň; priepasť vydala svoj hlas, do výše pozdvihla svojej ruky.

¹¹The sun [and] moon stood still in their habitation, At the light of thine arrows which shot forth, -- At the shining of thy glittering spear.

¹¹Slnce i mesiac zastály utiahnuc sa do svojho obydlia, na svetlo svojich šípov ta pošly, na jas blesku tvojej kopije.

¹²Thou didst march through the land in indignation, Thou didst thresh the nations in anger.

¹²V zúrivom hneve si kráčal po zemi, v hneve si mlátil národy.

¹³Thou wentest forth for the salvation of thy people, For the salvation of thine anointed; Thou didst smite off the head from the house of the wicked, Laying bare the foundation even to the neck. Selah.

¹³Vyšiel si na záchranu svojho ľudu, na záchranu svojho pomazaného; srazil si hlavu z domu bezbožníka obnažiac všetko od základu až po hrdlo. Sélah.

¹⁴Thou didst strike through with his own spears the head of his leaders: They came out as a whirlwind to scatter me, Whose exulting was as to devour the afflicted secretly.

¹⁴Jeho vlastnými palicami si prebodol hlavu jeho bojovníkov, dohrmeli jako víchrica, aby ma rozptýlili; plesali, jako keby boli išli zožrať chudobného v kryte.

¹⁵Thou didst walk through the sea with thy horses, The heap of great waters.

¹⁵Šliapal si svojimi koňmi po mori, po hromade mnohých vôd.

¹⁶I heard, and my belly trembled; My lips quivered at the voice; Rottenness entered into my bones, and I trembled in my place, That I might rest in the day of distress, When their invader shall come up against the people.

¹⁶Počul som, a zatriaslo sa moje lono, na ten hlas sa chvely moje rty; hniloba vošla do mojich kostí, a triasol som sa na mieste, kde som stál, že sa mám upokojiť na deň súženia, na deň, keď prijde hore proti ľudu ten, ktorý ho bude hubiť.

¹⁷For though the fig-tree shall not blossom, Neither shall fruit be in the vines; The labour of the olive-tree shall fail, And the fields shall yield no food; The flock shall be cut off from the fold, And there shall be no herd in the stalls:

¹⁷Keby hneď aj nekvitol fík, a nebolo by úrody na viničoch; keby sklamalo dielo olivy, a polia by nedorobily potravy; keby drobné stádo bolo odrezané od košiara, a nebolo by hoväda v stájach,

¹⁸Yet I will rejoice in Jehovah, I will joy in the God of my salvation.

¹⁸ja sa jednako budem veseliť v Hospodinovi, budem plesať v Bohu svojho spasenia.

¹⁹Jehovah, the Lord, is my strength, And he maketh my feet like hinds' [feet], And he will make me to walk upon my high places. To the chief Musician. On my stringed instruments.

¹⁹Hospodin, Pán je mojou silou a robí moje nohy jako nohy jeleníc a dáva mi kráčať po mojich výšinách. - Náčelníkovi speváckeho sboru na moje neginóty.
