1 Este es el mensaje que Habacuc vio en visión.
1 The revelation which Habakkuk the prophet saw.
2 Señor, ¿hasta cuándo tendré que clamar por tu ayuda sin que me escuches? Clamo a ti y digo: “¡Violencia!” pero tú no nos libras de ella.
2 Yahweh, how long will I cry, and you will not hear? I cry out to you “Violence!” and will you not save?
3 ¿Por qué me obligas a ver esta maldad y sufrimiento? ¿Por qué te quedas allí simplemente observando la destrucción y la violencia? ¡Hay riñas y pleitos frente ante mis propios ojos!
3 Why do you show me iniquity, and look at perversity? For destruction and violence are before me. There is strife, and contention rises up.
4 Por eso es que la ley está paralizada, y nunca gana la justicia. Los malvados son más numerosos que los que hacen el bien, y por eso manipulan la justicia.
4 Therefore the law is paralyzed, and justice never prevails; for the wicked surround the righteous; therefore justice comes out perverted.
5 Mira a tu alrededor las naciones; observa y te sorprenderás. Sucederá algo en tu tiempo que no lo creerías al oírlo.
5 “Look among the nations, watch, and wonder marvelously; for I am working a work in your days which you will not believe though it is told you.
6 ¡Mira! Yo levantaré a Babilonia, y serán un pueblo cruel y salvaje que andará por el mundo conquistando otras tierras.
6 For, behold, I am raising up the Chaldeans, that bitter and hasty nation who march through the width of the earth, to possess dwelling places that are not theirs.
7 Son temibles y espantosos, y están tan llenos de orgullo que solo siguen sus propias reglas.
7 They are feared and dreaded. Their judgment and their dignity proceed from themselves.
8 Sus caballos son más rápidos que leopardos y más feroces que lobos hambrientos. Sus jinetes vienen a gran velocidad desde muy lejos. Son como águilas que descienden en picada para comerse a su presa.
8 Their horses also are swifter than leopards, and are more fierce than the evening wolves. Their horsemen press proudly on. Yes, their horsemen come from afar. They fly as an eagle that hurries to devour.
9 Aquí vienen, con toda la intención de causar violencia. Sus ejércitos avanzan para atacar por el frente tan rápidamente como el viento del desierto, y son como la arena cuando salen a caprturar a los prisioneros.
9 All of them come for violence. Their hordes face forward. They gather prisoners like sand.
10 Se ríen de los reyes se burlan en la cara de los gobernantes. Se ríen con desprecio de los castillos, y amontonan rampas de tierra para sitiarlos.
10 Yes, they scoff at kings, and princes are a derision to them. They laugh at every stronghold, for they build up an earthen ramp and take it.
11 Luego desaparecen como el viento y se van. Son culpables porque han hecho de su propia fuerza su dios.
11 Then they sweep by like the wind and go on. They are indeed guilty, whose strength is their god.”
12 ¿No has existido desde la eternidad pasada? Tú eres el Señor mi Dios, mi Santo, y no mueres. Señor, tu los nombraste para dar juicio; Dios, nuestra Roca, tú los enviaste para castigarnos.
12 Aren’t you from everlasting, Yahweh my God, my Holy One? We will not die. Yahweh, you have appointed them for judgment. You, Rock, have established him to punish.
13 Tus ojos son demasiado puros para ver el mal. No toleras ver el mal. ¿Por qué has soportado a personas infieles? ¿Por qué guardas silencio mientas los malvados destruyen a los que hacen menos mal que ellos?
13 You who have purer eyes than to see evil, and who cannot look on perversity, why do you tolerate those who deal treacherously and keep silent when the wicked swallows up the man who is more righteous than he,
14 Tú haces que las personas se vuelvan como peces en el mar, o como insectos que se arrastran, que no tienen quien los gobierne.
14 and make men like the fish of the sea, like the creeping things that have no ruler over them?
15 Ellos arrastran a todos con ganchos, los sacan con redes y los atrapan. Luego celebran felices.
15 He takes up all of them with the hook. He catches them in his net and gathers them in his dragnet. Therefore he rejoices and is glad.
16 Adoran sus redes como si fueran sus dioses, hacienda sacrificios y quemando incienso para ellos, porque con sus redes pueden vivir en medio de lujos, comiendo comida rica.
16 Therefore he sacrifices to his net and burns incense to his dragnet, because by them his life is luxurious and his food is good.
17 ¿Seguirán acaso sacando sus espadas para siempre, matando a las naciones sin piedad?
17 Will he therefore continually empty his net, and kill the nations without mercy?
