(Some words not found in UHB: and,you_have_made humankind like,the_fish(es)_of the=sea like,creeping_thing[s] not have_~_ruler in/on/over=him/it )
Habakkuk is comparing helpless humans to the fish of the sea, which can be caught without resistance. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this comparison in another way. Alternate translation: [And you make man as helpless as the fish of the sea]

(Some words not found in UHB: and,you_have_made humankind like,the_fish(es)_of the=sea like,creeping_thing[s] not have_~_ruler in/on/over=him/it )
Habakkuk is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You can supply these words from the context if that would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: [and you make man like a creeping thing with no ruler over it]

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
Acknowledgements: The Hebrew text, lemmas, and morphology are all thanks to the OSHB and some of the glosses are from Macula Hebrew.
