Habacuc 3

EL LIBRO DEL PUEBLO DE DIOS	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 Oración del profeta Habacuc, en el tono de las lamentaciones.	1 A Prayer of Habakkuk the Prophet on Behalf of Those Who Are Ignorant.
2 ¡Señor, yo he oído tu renombre! ¡He visto tu obra, Señor! ¡En el curso de los años, hazla revivir, en el curso de los años, manifiéstala; pero en la conmoción, acuérdate de tener piedad!	2 Lord, I heard what has been said about you, and I was afraid. Lord, your work, in the midst of years, revive it. In the midst of years, you will make it known. When you have become angry, you will remember mercy.
3 Dios viene de Temán, y el Santo, del monte Parán. Su majestad cubre los cielos, y su alabanza cubre los cielos, y su alabanza llena la tierra.	3 God will come from the south, and the Holy One from mount Pharan. His glory has covered the heavens, and the earth is full of his praise.
4 Su resplandor es como la luz, brotan rayos de sus manos, y allí está el secreto de su fuerza.	4 His brightness shall be like the light; horns are in his hands. There, his strength has been hidden.
5 Delante de él avanza la Peste, y la Fiebre sigue sus pasos.	5 Death will go forth before his face. And the devil shall depart before his feet.
6 El se detiene, y hace vacilar la tierra, mira, y hace estremecer a las naciones. ¡Se desmoronan las montañas eternas, se hunden las colinas antiguas, sus caminos de siempre!	6 He stood, and measured the earth. He looked, and dissolved the Gentiles. And the mountains of ages past have been shattered. The hills of the world became curved by the journeys of his eternity.
7 Yo he visto anonadados a los campamentos de Cusán, se conmueven las carpas del país de Madián.	7 I saw the tents of Ethiopia for their iniquity; the tent-skins of the land of Midian will be thrown into confusion.
8 ¿Arde la ira del Señor contra los ríos? ¿Tu cólera se enciende contra los ríos y tu furor contra el mar, para que montes en tus caballos, en tus carros de guerra victoriosos?	8 Could you have been angry with the rivers, Lord? Or was your fury within the rivers, or your indignation in the sea? He will ascend upon your horses, and your four-horse chariots are salvation.
9 Tú pones al desnudo tu arco y sacias de flechas su cuerda. Abres la tierra, y brotan torrentes.	9 Being stirred up, you will take up your bow, the oaths you have spoken to the tribes. You will split apart the Rivers of the earth.
10 Te ven las montañas y se espantan, pasa una lluvia torrencial, y el océano hace oír su voz y levanta sus manos en alto.	10 They saw you, and the mountains grieved. The great body of waters crossed over. The abyss uttered its voice. The pinnacle lifted up its hands.
11 El sol y la luna se detienen en su morada, a la luz de tus flechas que vuelan, al resplandor del centelleo de lanza.	11 The sun and the moon have stood firm in their dwelling place; with the light of your arrows, they shall go forth in the splendor of your flashing spear.
12 Con furia recorres la tierra, con ira pisoteas las naciones.	12 With a roar, you will trample the earth. In your fury, you will cause the nations to be stupefied.
13 Has salido para salvar a tu pueblo, para salvar a tu Ungido; has abatido el techo de la casa del impío, has descubierto sus cimientos hasta la roca.	13 You have gone forth for the salvation of your people, for salvation with your Christ. You struck the head of the house of the impious. You have laid bare his foundation all the way to the neck.
14 Has traspasado con tus flechas la cabeza de sus jefes, que se lanzaban tempestuosamente para destrozarme, entre gritos de alegría, como quien devora a un pobre ocultamente.	14 You have cursed his scepters, the head of his warriors, those who approached like a whirlwind so as to scatter me. Their exultation was like one who devours the poor in secret.
15 Con tus caballos has surcado el mar, entre el bullir de las aguas caudalosas.	15 You made a way in the sea for your horses, in the mud of great waters.
16 Al oírlo, se conmovieron mis entrañas, ante el fragor, balbucean mis labios; la caries penetra en mis huesos y debajo de mí tiemblan mis pasos. Espero tranquilo el día de la angustia, que le sobrevendrá al pueblo que nos ataca.	16 I heard, and my stomach became troubled. My lips trembled at the voice. Let decay enter into my bones and gush forth from within me. Then I may rest in the day of tribulation, so that I may ascend to our people well-prepared.
17 Porque la higuera no florece, ni se recoge nada en las viñas; fracasa la cosecha del olivo y los campos no dan alimento; las ovejas desaparecerán del corral y no hay bueyes en los establos.	17 For the fig tree will not flower, and there will be no bud on the vines. The labor of the olive tree will be misleading, and the farmland will produce no food. The sheep will be cut off from the sheepfold, and there will be no herd at the manger.
18 Pero yo me alegraré en el Señor, me regocijaré en Dios, mi Salvador.	18 But I will rejoice in the Lord; and I will exult in God my Jesus.
19 El Señor, mi Señor, es mi fortaleza: él da a mis pies la agilidad de las gacelas y me hace caminar por las alturas.	19 The Lord God is my strength. And he will set my feet like those of the stag. And he, the victor, will lead me beyond my high places while singing psalms.
