Habacuque 3

A oração de Habacuque

1 *Sl 86;90, títuloOração do profeta Habacuque, à moda de *Sl 7, títulosigionote.

2 Tenho *Jó 42.5-6ouvido, Jeová, a tua fama e estou *Sl 119.120;Jr 10.7amedrontado;

*Sl 71.20;85.6aviva, Jeová, *Hc 1.5;Sl 44.1-8a tua obra no meio dos anos,

faze que seja ela conhecida no meio dos anos;

na tua indignação lembra-te de *Nm 14.19;2Sm 24.15-17;Is 54.8misericórdia.

3 Deus vem de *Gn 36.11;Jr 49.7;Am 1.12;Ob 9Temã,

e do monte de *Gn 21.21;Dt 33.2Parã, o Santo (Selá.).

*Sl 113.4;148.13A sua glória cobre os céus,

*Sl 48.10e a terra está cheia do seu louvor.

4 O seu *Sl 18.12resplendor é como a luz;

da sua mão saem raios;

ali, é que está escondido o seu *Jó 26.14poder.

5 Adiante dele vai a *Êx 12.29-30;Nm 16.46-49peste,

*Nm 11.1-3;Sl 18.12-13e pragas ardentes seguem os seus passos.

6 Ele para e mede a terra;

olha *Jó 21.18;Sl 35.5e faz separar-se as nações.

Espalham-se os *Sl 114.1-6montes eternos,

abatem-se os outeiros perpétuos;

os seus caminhos são como *Hc 1.12;Mq 5.2desde os dias antigos.

7 Vejo *Êx 15.14-16aflitas as tendas de Cusã;

tremem as cortinas da terra de *Gn 25.1-4;Nm 31.7-8;Jz 7.24-25;8.12Midiã.

8 Acaso, é contra *Êx 7.19-20;Js 3.16;Is 50.2os rios que Jeová está irado?

É contra os rios a tua ira

ou contra o *Êx 14.16,21;Sl 114.3,5mar o teu furor,

visto que *Dt 33.26;Sl 18.10andas montado nos teus *Hc 3.15;2Rs 2.11cavalos,

*Sl 68.17nos teus carros da salvação?

9 O teu *Hc 3.11;Sl 7.12-13arco está de todo descoberto;

palavra firme são *Gn 26.3;Dt 7.8os juramentos feitos às tribos (Selá.).

*Sl 78.16;105.41Fendes a terra com rios.

10 *Sl 114.1-6Os montes te veem e ficam amedrontados;

*Is 11.15o dilúvio de águas passa,

o abismo *Sl 93.3;98.7-8faz ouvir a sua voz

e levanta para cima as suas mãos.

11 *Js 10.12-14;Sl 18.9,11O sol e a lua param na sua habitação;

retiram-se *Sl 18.14à luz das tuas flechas,

ao resplendor da tua lança fulgurante.

12 Na tua indignação, *Sl 63.7marchas pela terra;

na tua ira, *Is 41.15;Jr 51.33;Mq 4.13trilhas as nações.

13 Tu sais para *Êx 15.2;Sl 68.19-20a salvação do teu povo,

para a salvação dos teus *Sl 20.6;28.8ungidos!

Decepas a *Sl 68.21;110.6cabeça da casa do ímpio,

descobrindo o *Ez 13.14fundamento até o pescoço. (Selá.).

14 Traspassas a cabeça dos seus guerreiros *Jz 7.22com as suas próprias lanças,

os quais vêm como *Dn 11.40;Zc 9.14turbilhão para me espalharem.

Regozijam-se, como se estivessem *Sl 10.8;64.2-5para devorar o pobre em segredo.

15 *Hc 3.8;Sl 77.19Pisas o mar com os teus cavalos,

sim, *Êx 15.8o montão de grandes águas.

16 Ouvi, e o meu ventre *Hc 3.2;Dn 10.8se comoveu,

os meus lábios tremeram ao som;

entrou a podridão nos meus *Jó 30.17,30;Jr 23.9ossos, e estremeci no meu lugar;

para que eu *Lc 21.19descansasse no dia da tribulação,

quando esse dia subir contra o povo *Jr 5.15que, em tropas, o invade.

17 Pois, embora *Jl 1.10-12;Am 4.9não floresça a figueira,

nem haja fruto nas *Ag 2.16vides;

embora falhe o produto da *Mq 6.15oliveira,

e os campos não produzam mantimento;

embora o *Jl 1.18rebanho seja exterminado do curral,

*Jr 5.17e não haja gado nos presépios,

18 contudo, eu me *Êx 15.1-2;Is 61.10;Rm 5.2-3;Fp 4.4regozijarei em Jeová,

*Sl 46.1-5exultarei no *Sl 25.5;27.1;Is 12.2Deus da minha salvação.

19 O Senhor Jeová é a minha *Sl 18.32-33;Is 45.21fortaleza.

Ele faz os meus pés como os das corças

e me fará andar nos meus *Dt 33.29lugares altos.

Para o cantor-mor, com os meus *Sl 4.6, título;Is 38.20instrumentos de cordas.
