하박국 2
Korean Bible: Easy-to-Read Version
2 내가 내 망대에 올라가
성벽의 내 자리에 서서
지켜보겠다.
주님께서 내게 무어라 말씀하시는지
내 질문에 무어라고 대답하시는지
지켜보겠다.
하나님께서 하박국에게 대답하시다
2 주님께서 내게 대답하셨다.
“이 환상을 서판에 분명히 기록하여
누구든지 뛰어가면서도 읽을 수 있게 하여라.
3 정해진 때가 오면
이 환상이 실제로 일어날 것이다.
끝은 정해졌으며 바뀌지 않는다.
그 때가 더디 온다고 해도 기다려라.
그 때는 지체하지 않고 온다.
반드시 온다.
4 포기하는 사람은
이 환상에 걸맞은 삶을 살지 못한다.
그러나 의로운 사람은
이 환상에 대한 믿음[a]으로 살 것이다.
5 거만한 자는 많은 재산에 속으며
스올처럼 탐욕스러운 자는 결코 목적을 달성하지 못한다.
그런 자는 죽음과 같아서 결코 만족하지 않는다.
그는 모든 나라들을 제 것으로 만들고
모든 민족들을 잡아온다.
6 그러나 이 모든 민족과 나라들이 그를 웃음거리로 삼고.
그를 조롱하는 수수께끼를 만들어 내지 않겠느냐?
사람들은 이렇게 말할 것이다.
‘남의 것을 긁어모으는 자야
너에게 재앙이 닥치리라.
제 몸 위에다 빚을 산더미처럼 쌓는 자야
그것이 얼마나 오래가겠느냐?’
7 빚쟁이들이 갑자기 들이닥치지 않겠느냐?
너를 놀라게 하는 사람들이 잠에서 깨어나지 않겠느냐?
그들이 너를 약탈할 것이다.
8 네가 많은 나라들을 털었으니
이제 남은 모든 민족들이 너를 털 것이다.
네가 사람의 피를 흘리게 하고
그 땅과 마을과 거기에 사는 모든 사람들에게
폭력을 휘둘렀기 때문이다.
9 돈을 가지고 남들 위에 올라서서
재앙을 피해 보려고
높은 곳에 둥지를 틀고
폭력을 휘둘러 재산을 모으는 자야
너에게 재앙이 닥칠 것이다.
10 네가 많은 민족들을 죽이려고 계획을 꾸몄지만
그것은 네 집안을 망신시키는 계획이 되었고
너는 네 목숨을 잃게 할 죄를 짓고 있다.
11 네 집 담장의 돌 하나가 외치면
들보가 맞장구칠 것이다.
12 죄 없는 사람들을 죽여서 도시를 짓는 자야
불의 위에 마을을 세우는 자야
너에게 재앙이 닥칠 것이다.
13 보라.
이것이 만군의 주님께서 일으키시는 일이 아니냐?
뭇 백성들은 결국 불에 타 없어질 것을 위해 죽도록 수고했고
뭇 나라들은 헛된 것을 위해서 지치도록 노력했다.
14 물이 바다를 덮듯이
땅이 주님의 영광을 아는 지식으로 가득 찰 것이다.
15 친구에게 술을 먹이고 분노를 쏟아내며
친구를 취하게 하여 그 알몸을 보려는 자야
너에게 재앙이 닥칠 것이다.
16 네가 자신을 영예롭게 하기는커녕
수치스럽게 만들었다.
너도 술을 마시고 알몸을 드러내야만 한다.
주님의 오른 손의 잔이 네게 닥칠 것이며
영광 대신에 창피를 당할 것이다.
17 네가 레바논에게 저지른 폭력이 너를 뒤덮고
네가 짐승들을 살육한 일이 네가 공포에 떨 날을 가져올 것이다.
그것이 네가 사람을 죽이고
그 땅과 마을과 거기에 사는 모든 사람들을 괴롭힌 대가다.
우상들에 관한 말씀
18 누군가가 새겨 놓은 우상이 해준 것이 무엇이냐?
사람이 새긴 형상이나 거짓 신의 조각상이 무슨 도움을 주었느냐?
그것을 만든 자는 그 조각상을 믿으며
쓸모도 없고 말도 못하는 것을 만들지 않았느냐?
19 나무 더러 ‘깨어나십시오.’ 하며
말 못하는 바위 더러 ‘일어나십시오.’ 하는 자야
너에게 재앙이 닥칠 것이다.
그것이 네게 가르침을 줄 수 있겠느냐?
그것은 금과 은 속에 갇혀 있을 뿐
그 안에는 숨결이 없다.
20 그러나 주님께서는 당신의 거룩한 성전 안에 살아 계신다.
온 땅아
그분 앞에서 잠잠하여라.”

Habakkuk 2
King James Version
2 I will stand upon my watch, and set me upon the tower, and will watch to see what he will say unto me, and what I shall answer when I am reproved.
2 And the Lord answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it.
3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry.
4 Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: but the just shall live by his faith.
5 Yea also, because he transgresseth by wine, he is a proud man, neither keepeth at home, who enlargeth his desire as hell, and is as death, and cannot be satisfied, but gathereth unto him all nations, and heapeth unto him all people:
6 Shall not all these take up a parable against him, and a taunting proverb against him, and say, Woe to him that increaseth that which is not his! how long? and to him that ladeth himself with thick clay!
7 Shall they not rise up suddenly that shall bite thee, and awake that shall vex thee, and thou shalt be for booties unto them?
8 Because thou hast spoiled many nations, all the remnant of the people shall spoil thee; because of men's blood, and for the violence of the land, of the city, and of all that dwell therein.
9 Woe to him that coveteth an evil covetousness to his house, that he may set his nest on high, that he may be delivered from the power of evil!
10 Thou hast consulted shame to thy house by cutting off many people, and hast sinned against thy soul.
11 For the stone shall cry out of the wall, and the beam out of the timber shall answer it.
12 Woe to him that buildeth a town with blood, and stablisheth a city by iniquity!
13 Behold, is it not of the Lord of hosts that the people shall labour in the very fire, and the people shall weary themselves for very vanity?
14 For the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea.
15 Woe unto him that giveth his neighbour drink, that puttest thy bottle to him, and makest him drunken also, that thou mayest look on their nakedness!
16 Thou art filled with shame for glory: drink thou also, and let thy foreskin be uncovered: the cup of the Lord's right hand shall be turned unto thee, and shameful spewing shall be on thy glory.
17 For the violence of Lebanon shall cover thee, and the spoil of beasts, which made them afraid, because of men's blood, and for the violence of the land, of the city, and of all that dwell therein.
18 What profiteth the graven image that the maker thereof hath graven it; the molten image, and a teacher of lies, that the maker of his work trusteth therein, to make dumb idols?
19 Woe unto him that saith to the wood, Awake; to the dumb stone, Arise, it shall teach! Behold, it is laid over with gold and silver, and there is no breath at all in the midst of it.
20 But the Lord is in his holy temple: let all the earth keep silence before him.
Habakkuk 2
New King James Version
The Just Shall Live by Faith
2 I will (A)stand my watch
And set myself on the rampart,
And watch to see what He will say to me,
And what I will answer when I am corrected.
The Just Live by Faith
2 Then the Lord answered me and said:
(B)“Write the vision
And make it plain on tablets,
That he may run who reads it.
3 For (C)the vision is yet for an appointed time;
But at the end it will speak, and it will (D)not lie.
Though it tarries, (E)wait for it;
Because it will (F)surely come,
It will not tarry.
4 “Behold the proud,
His soul is not upright in him;
But the (G)just shall live by his faith.
Woe to the Wicked
5 “Indeed, because he transgresses by wine,
He is a proud man,
And he does not stay at home.
Because he (H)enlarges his desire as [a]hell,
And he is like death, and cannot be satisfied,
He gathers to himself all nations
And heaps up for himself all peoples.
6 “Will not all these (I)take up a proverb against him,
And a taunting riddle against him, and say,
‘Woe to him who increases
What is not his—how long?
And to him who loads himself with [b]many pledges’?
7 Will not [c]your creditors rise up suddenly?
Will they not awaken who oppress you?
And you will become their booty.
8 (J)Because you have plundered many nations,
All the remnant of the people shall plunder you,
Because of men’s [d]blood
And the violence of the land and the city,
And of all who dwell in it.
9 “Woe to him who covets evil gain for his house,
That he may (K)set his nest on high,
That he may be delivered from the [e]power of disaster!
10 You give shameful counsel to your house,
Cutting off many peoples,
And sin against your soul.
11 For the stone will cry out from the wall,
And the beam from the timbers will answer it.
12 “Woe to him who builds a town with bloodshed,
Who establishes a city by iniquity!
13 Behold, is it not of the Lord of hosts
That the peoples labor [f]to feed the fire,
And nations weary themselves in vain?
14 For the earth will be filled
With the knowledge of the glory of the Lord,
As the waters cover the sea.
15 “Woe to him who gives drink to his neighbor,
[g]Pressing him to your (L)bottle,
Even to make him drunk,
That you may look on [h]his nakedness!
16 You are filled with shame instead of glory.
You also—drink!
And [i]be exposed as uncircumcised!
The cup of the Lord’s right hand will be turned against you,
And utter shame will be on your glory.
17 For the violence done to Lebanon will cover you,
And the plunder of beasts which made them afraid,
Because of men’s blood
And the violence of the land and the city,
And of all who dwell in it.
18 “What profit is the image, that its maker should carve it,
The molded image, a teacher of lies,
That the maker of its mold should trust in it,
To make mute idols?
19 Woe to him who says to wood, ‘Awake!’
To silent stone, ‘Arise! It shall teach!’
Behold, it is overlaid with gold and silver,
Yet in it there is no breath at all.
20 “But(M) the Lord is in His holy temple.
Let all the earth keep silence before Him.”
