Habakkuk 1

Studie

1 τὸ λῆμμα ὃ εἶδεν αμβακουμ ὁ προφήτης

2 ἕως τίνος κύριε κεκράξομαι καὶ οὐ μὴ εἰσακούσῃς βοήσομαι πρὸς σὲ ἀδικούμενος καὶ οὐ σώσεις

3 ἵνα τί μοι ἔδειξας κόπους καὶ πόνους ἐπιβλέπειν ταλαιπωρίαν καὶ ἀσέβειαν ἐξ ἐναντίας μου γέγονεν κρίσις καὶ ὁ κριτὴς λαμβάνει

4 διὰ τοῦτο διεσκέδασται νόμος καὶ οὐ διεξάγεται εἰς τέλος κρίμα ὅτι ὁ ἀσεβὴς καταδυναστεύει τὸν δίκαιον ἕνεκεν τούτου ἐξελεύσεται τὸ κρίμα διεστραμμένον

5 ἴδετε οἱ καταφρονηταί καὶ ἐπιβλέψατε καὶ θαυμάσατε θαυμάσια καὶ ἀφανίσθητε διότι ἔργον ἐγὼ ἐργάζομαι ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις ὑμῶν ὃ οὐ μὴ πιστεύσητε ἐάν τις ἐκδιηγῆται

6 διότι ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἐξεγείρω ἐφ' ὑμᾶς τοὺς χαλδαίους τοὺς μαχητάς τὸ ἔθνος τὸ πικρὸν καὶ τὸ ταχινὸν τὸ πορευόμενον ἐπὶ τὰ πλάτη τῆς γῆς τοῦ κατακληρονομῆσαι σκηνώματα οὐκ αὐτοῦ

7 φοβερὸς καὶ ἐπιφανής ἐστιν ἐξ αὐτοῦ τὸ κρίμα αὐτοῦ ἔσται καὶ τὸ λῆμμα αὐτοῦ ἐξ αὐτοῦ ἐξελεύσεται

8 καὶ ἐξαλοῦνται ὑπὲρ παρδάλεις οἱ ἵπποι αὐτοῦ καὶ ὀξύτεροι ὑπὲρ τοὺς λύκους τῆς ἀραβίας καὶ ἐξιππάσονται οἱ ἱππεῖς αὐτοῦ καὶ ὁρμήσουσιν μακρόθεν καὶ πετασθήσονται ὡς ἀετὸς πρόθυμος εἰς τὸ φαγεῖν

9 συντέλεια εἰς ἀσεβεῖς ἥξει ἀνθεστηκότας προσώποις αὐτῶν ἐξ ἐναντίας καὶ συνάξει ὡς ἄμμον αἰχμαλωσίαν

10 καὶ αὐτὸς ἐν βασιλεῦσιν ἐντρυφήσει καὶ τύραννοι παίγνια αὐτοῦ καὶ αὐτὸς εἰς πᾶν ὀχύρωμα ἐμπαίξεται καὶ βαλεῖ χῶμα καὶ κρατήσει αὐτοῦ

11 τότε μεταβαλεῖ τὸ πνεῦμα καὶ διελεύσεται καὶ ἐξιλάσεται αὕτη ἡ ἰσχὺς τῷ θεῷ μου

12 οὐχὶ σὺ ἀπ' ἀρχῆς κύριε ὁ θεὸς ὁ ἅγιός μου καὶ οὐ μὴ ἀποθάνωμεν κύριε εἰς κρίμα τέταχας αὐτόν καὶ ἔπλασέν με τοῦ ἐλέγχειν παιδείαν αὐτοῦ

13 καθαρὸς ὀφθαλμὸς τοῦ μὴ ὁρᾶν πονηρά καὶ ἐπιβλέπειν ἐπὶ πόνους οὐ δυνήσῃ ἵνα τί ἐπιβλέπεις ἐπὶ καταφρονοῦντας παρασιωπήσῃ ἐν τῷ καταπίνειν ἀσεβῆ τὸν δίκαιον

14 καὶ ποιήσεις τοὺς ἀνθρώπους ὡς τοὺς ἰχθύας τῆς θαλάσσης καὶ ὡς τὰ ἑρπετὰ τὰ οὐκ ἔχοντα ἡγούμενον

15 συντέλειαν ἐν ἀγκίστρῳ ἀνέσπασεν καὶ εἵλκυσεν αὐτὸν ἐν ἀμφιβλήστρῳ καὶ συνήγαγεν αὐτὸν ἐν ταῖς σαγήναις αὐτοῦ ἕνεκεν τούτου εὐφρανθήσεται καὶ χαρήσεται ἡ καρδία αὐτοῦ

16 ἕνεκεν τούτου θύσει τῇ σαγήνῃ αὐτοῦ καὶ θυμιάσει τῷ ἀμφιβλήστρῳ αὐτοῦ ὅτι ἐν αὐτοῖς ἐλίπανεν μερίδα αὐτοῦ καὶ τὰ βρώματα αὐτοῦ ἐκλεκτά

17 διὰ τοῦτο ἀμφιβαλεῖ τὸ ἀμφίβληστρον αὐτοῦ καὶ διὰ παντὸς ἀποκτέννειν ἔθνη οὐ φείσεται

23. 21. Art thou not from old, Jehovah, my God, mine Holy One? let us not die. Jehovah, thou hast placed him for judgment, and, O Rock, thou hast established him for correction (Habakkuk 1:12). (The vision is yet for the appointed time; it shall not lie: wait for it, because in coming it will come, nor will it tarry (Habakkuk 2:3).

Jehovah, I have heard the report of Thee; I have revered Thy work; make that present in the midst of the years, in the midst of the years make [known]. God shall come out of Teman, and the Holy One from mount Paran. Selah. His honor covered the heavens, and the earth was full of His praise. His brightness will be as the light, rays coming forth from His hand, and there will be the hiding of His strength. Thou wentest forth for the salvation of Thy people. I will be glad in Jehovah, I will exult in the God of my salvation. Jehovah Lord is my strength, He will make me to walk upon mine high places (Habakkuk 3:2-4, 13, 18-19).

(Shout and be glad, O daughter of Zion; for, lo, I come that I may dwell in the midst of thee. Then many nations shall be joined to Jehovah in that day, they shall be to Me for a people, and I will dwell in thee (Zechariah 2:10-11).)

(Exult greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of Jerusalem; behold, thy King cometh unto thee: He is just and saved, lowly, riding upon an ass, and upon the foal of asses. He shall speak peace unto the nations: and His dominion shall be from sea to sea, and from the river even unto the ends of the earth.) Jehovah shall appear over them, and His weapon shall go forth as the lightning, and the Lord Jehovih shall sound with a trumpet, and shall go in the whirlwinds of the south. Jehovah their God shall save them in that day as the flock, His people (Zechariah 9:9-10, 14, 16).

(Behold, I send Mine angel, who shall prepare the way before Me; and the Lord, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to His temple), and the messenger of the covenant whom ye seek. Behold, He cometh, saith Jehovah of Hosts. Who may abide His coming, and who may stand when He appeareth? (Malachi 3:1-2).

Behold, I send you Elijah the prophet before the great and terrible day of Jehovah come, that he may turn the heart of the fathers to the sons, and the heart of the sons to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse ([Malachi 4:5-6]).
