< 彌迦書 5 >

1 被圍困的女子,現在妳要抓傷身,他們己圍困住我們,用棍杖搫打以色列民長的面頰。
Now thou, douyter of a theef, schalt be distried; thei puttiden on vs bisegyng, in a yerde thei schulen smyte the cheke of the iuge of Israel.
2 厄弗辣大白冷! 你在猶大群邑中雖是最小的,但是將由你從我生出一位統治以色列的人,他的來歷源自亙古,遠自永遠的時代。
And thou, Bethleem Effrata, art litil in the thousyndis of Juda; he that is the lordli gouernour in Israel, schal go out of thee to me; and the goyng out of hym is fro bigynnyng, fro daies of euerlastyngnesse.
3 因此,上主必將遺棄他們,直到孕婦生產之時,那時他 弟兄中的遺民必將歸來,與以色列子民團聚。
For this thing he shal yyue hem til to the tyme in which the trauelinge of child schal bere child, and the relifs of hise britheren schulen be conuertid to the sones of Israel.
4 他必卓然屹立,以上主的能力及上主他們的天主之名的權威,牧放自己的羊群。他們將獲得安居,因為他必大有權勢,直達地極。
And he schal stonde, and schal fede in the strengthe of the Lord, in the heiythe of the name of his Lord God; and thei schulen be conuertid, for now he schal be magnefied til to the endis of al erthe.
5 他本人將是和平! 當亞述人侵入我們地域,蹂躪我們領土時,必有七個牧者,八個人民首領奮起對抗。
And this schal be pees, whanne Assirius schal come in to oure lond, and whanne he schal trede in oure housis; and we schulen reise on hym seuene scheepherdis, and eiyte primatis men, ether the firste in dignytee.
6 他們必用刀統治亞述,用劍管轄默洛得地。當亞述侵入我們地域,蹂躪我們的境域時,他必救援我們。
And thei schulen frete the lond of Assur bi swerd, and the lond of Nembroth bi speris of hym; and he schal delyuere vs fro Assur, whanne he schal come in to oure lond, and whanne he schal trede in oure coostis.
7 那時,雅各伯的遺民,在許多民族中,必如由上主而來的朝露,必如落在青草上的甘霖,不再期待於人,也不寄望於人子。
And relifs of Jacob schulen be in the myddil of many puplis, as dew of the Lord, and as dropis on erbe, whiche abidith not man, and schal not abide sones of men.
8 那時,雅各伯的遺民,在異民中,在許多民族中,必如獅子在森林百獸中,必如幼童在羊群中,所經之處,必加以蹂躪摧殘,無人能夠搶救。
And relifs of Jacob schulen be in hethene men, in the myddil of many puplis, as a lioun in beestis of the woodis, and as a whelpe of a lioun rorynge in flockis of scheep; and whanne he passith, and defoulith, and takith, there is not that schal delyuere.
9 你的手臂將高舉在你敵人之上,你的一切仇敵必要滅絕。
And thin hond schal be reisid on thin enemyes, and alle thin enemyes schulen perische.
10 到那一日──上主的斷語──我必由你中間毀滅你的戰馬,破壞你的車輛,
And it schal be, in that dai, seith the Lord, Y schal take awei thin horsis fro the myddil of thee, and Y schal distrie thi foure horsid cartis.
11 毀壞你境內的城市,傾覆你的一切堡壘,
And Y schal leese the citees of thi lond, and Y schal distrie alle thi strengthis;
12 滅絕你手中的巫術,使你不再有人占卜;
and Y schal do awei witchecraftis fro thin hond, and dyuynaciouns schulen not be in thee.
13 我必由你們中間消滅你的彫像和石柱,使你不再膜拜你手製的作品;
And Y schal make for to perische thi `grauun ymagis, and Y schal breke togidere fro the myddil of thee thin ymagis, and thou schalt no more worschipe the werkis of thin hondis.
14 我必由你們中間根除你的神柱,毀壞你的神像;
And Y schal drawe out of the middis of thee thi woodis, and Y schal al to-breke thi citees.
15 對那不順服的異民,我必在憤怒激憤之下施以報復。
And Y schal make in woodnesse and indignacioun veniaunce in alle folkis, whiche herden not.
