Habakkuk 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.
我要站在守望所,立在望楼上观看,看耶和华对我说什么话,我可用什么话向他诉冤(向他诉冤:或译回答所疑问的)。
And the LORD answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it.
他对我说:将这默示明明地写在版上,使读的人容易读(或译:随跑随读)。
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.
因为这默示有一定的日期,快要应验,并不虚谎。虽然迟延,还要等候;因为必然临到,不再迟延。
Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: but the just shall live by his faith.

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.

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.

But the LORD is in his holy temple: let all the earth keep silence before him.
惟耶和华在他的圣殿中;全地的人都当在他面前肃敬静默。
