¹A prayer of Habakkuk, the prophet, set to victorious music.

¹[Vavaka nangatahan'ny mpaminany famindram-po] Ny fivavak'i Habakoka mpaminany. Araka ny Sigionota.

²Yahweh, I have heard of your fame. I stand in awe of your deeds, Yahweh. Renew your work in the midst of the years. In the midst of the years make it known. In wrath, you remember mercy.

²Jehovah ô, efa reko ny filazana Anao, ka raiki-tahotra aho; Jehovah ô, velomy ny asanao ao an-tenatenan'ny taona, Ataovy fantatra ao an-tenatenan'ny taona izany; Na dia tezitra aza Hianao, tsarovy ny indrafo.

³God came from Teman, the Holy One from Mount Paran. Selah. His glory covered the heavens, and his praise filled the earth.

³Tamy avy any Temana Andriamanitra, Dia ny iray Masina avy any an-tendrombohitra Parana. Manarona ny lanitra ny voninahiny, Ary manenika ny tany ny fiderana Azy.[Sela]

⁴His splendor is like the sunrise. Rays shine from his hand, where his power is hidden.

⁴Misy famirapiratana toy ny mazava, Ary misy tàna-masoandro avy eo amin'ny tànany;12 Ary ao no fieren'ny heriny.[Na: avy eo anilany]

⁵Plague went before him, and pestilence followed his feet.

⁵Eo alohany no andehanan'ny areti-mandringana, Ary areti-mandripaka no mivoaka avy eo aoriany.[Na: zava-mahamay]

⁶He 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.

⁶Mijanona Izy ka manozongozona ny tany; Mijery Izy ka mampangovitra ny firenena, Ary torotoro ny tendrombohitra mandrakizay, Mietry ny havoana fahagola, Fanaony hatry ny fahagola ny Azy.

⁷I saw the tents of Cushan in affliction. The dwellings of the land of Midian trembled.

⁷Mahita ny lain'i Kosana azom-pahoriana aho, Sady mipararetra ny ambain-dain'ny tany Midiana.

⁸Was 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?

⁸Moa amin'ny ony va no irehetan'ny fahatezeran'i Jehovah ? Amin'ny ony va no ahatezeranao, Na amin'ny ranomasina va no ahasosoranao, No dia mitaingina ny soavalinao sy ny kalesim-pamonjenao Hianao ?

⁹You uncovered your bow. You called for your sworn arrows. Selah. You split the earth with rivers.

⁹Nalan-tsarona ny tsipìkanao; Efa nianianana ny fikapohan'ny teny. [Sela] Namakivaky ny tany Hianao mba hisy ony.[Na: ny fiainana tamin'ny firenena dia teny]

¹⁰The mountains saw you, and were afraid. The storm of waters passed by. The deep roared and lifted up its hands on high.

¹⁰Nahita Anao ny tendrombohitra ka toran-kovitra; Mirotsaka ny ranonorana mivatravatra, Mamoa-peo ny lalina Sady manangan-tanana ho amin'ny avo.[Heb. Mandalo]

¹¹The sun and moon stood still in the sky, at the light of your arrows as they went, at the shining of your glittering spear.

¹¹Ny masoandro sy ny volana niditra teo amin'ny fitoerany, Noho ny fahazavan'ny zana-tsipìkanao mitsoriaka Sy ny fanelatselatry ny lefonao mamirapiratra.

¹²You marched through the land in wrath. You threshed the nations in anger.

¹²Amin'ny fahatezeranao no anitsahanao ny tany; Amin'ny fahaviniranao no anosihosenao ny firenena.

¹³You went forth 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.

¹³Mivoaka hamonjy ny olonao Hianao, dia hamonjy ny voahosotrao; Torotoroinao ny tapenaky ny tranon'ny ratsy fanahy, Ka ahariharinao hatreo an-tenatenany ny fanorenany. [sela][Heb. lohan'][an-katony]

¹⁴You 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.

¹⁴Ny lefony ihany no anaboroahanao ny lohan'ireo miaramilany betsaka, Izay avy toy ny tadio hanely ahy, Sady mifaly handany mangingina ny ory izy.

¹⁵You trampled the sea with your horses, churning mighty waters.

¹⁵Mitety ny ranomasina amin'ny soavalinao Hianao, Dia eny amin'ny rano be miavovona.

¹⁶I 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.

¹⁶Nony mandre aho, dia mandevilevy ny kiboko; Ny molotro mipararetra noho ny feo; Azon'ny fahalòvana ny taolako, ary mangovitra aho; Fa tsy maintsy miandry ny andro fahoriana aho, Dia izay hiakaran'ny mpanao an-diany hamely ny olonao.

¹⁷For 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:

¹⁷Fa na dia tsy mamontsina aza ny aviavy, Ary tsy misy voany ny voaloboka, Na dia mahadiso fanantenana aza ny oliva, Ary tsy mahavokatra hohanina ny saha, Na dia vonoina aza ny ondry ao amin'ny vala, Ary tsy misy omby ao am-pahitra,

¹⁸yet I will rejoice in Yahweh. I will be joyful in the God of my salvation!

¹⁸Nefa izaho dia mbola hifaly amin'i Jehovah ihany Sy hiravoravo amin'Andriamanitry ny famonjena ahy.Jehovah Tompo no tanjako, Ary manao ny tongotro ho toy ny an'ny dieravavy Izy Ka mampandeha ahy any amin'ny havoanako. Ho an'ny mpiventy hira. Hampiarahina amin'ny valiha.

¹⁹Yahweh, the Lord The word translated “Lord” is “Adonai.” , 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.

¹⁹Jehovah Tompo no tanjako, Ary manao ny tongotro ho toy ny an'ny dieravavy Izy Ka mampandeha ahy any amin'ny havoanako. Ho an'ny mpiventy hira. Hampiarahina amin'ny valiha.
