彌迦書 2
1 禍哉，那些在床上圖謀罪孽、造作奸惡的！ 天一發亮，因手有能力就行出來了。
Woe [to] those devising iniquity, And working evil on their beds, In the light of the morning they do it, For their hand is — to God.
2 他們貪圖田地就佔據， 貪圖房屋便奪取； 他們欺壓人，霸佔房屋和產業。
And they have desired fields, And they have taken violently, And houses, and they have taken away, And have oppressed a man and his house, Even a man and his inheritance.
3 所以耶和華如此說： 我籌劃災禍降與這族； 這禍在你們的頸項上不能解脫； 你們也不能昂首而行， 因為這時勢是惡的。
Therefore, thus said Jehovah: Lo, I am devising against this family evil, From which ye do not remove your necks, Nor walk loftily, for a time of evil it [is].
4 到那日，必有人向你們提起悲慘的哀歌， 譏刺說：我們全然敗落了！ 耶和華將我們的分轉歸別人， 何竟使這分離開我們？ 他將我們的田地分給悖逆的人。
In that day doth [one] take up for you a simile, And he hath wailed a wailing of woe, He hath said, We have been utterly spoiled, The portion of my people He doth change, How doth He move toward me! To the backslider our fields He apportioneth.
5 所以在耶和華的會中， 你必沒有人拈鬮拉準繩。
Therefore, thou hast no caster of a line by lot In the assembly of Jehovah.
6 他們說：你們不可說預言； 不可向這些人說預言， 不住地羞辱我們。
Ye do not prophesy — they do prophesy, They do not prophesy to these, It doth not remove shame.
7 雅各家啊，豈可說耶和華的心不忍耐嗎？ 這些事是他所行的嗎？ 我－耶和華的言語豈不是與行動正直的人有益嗎？
Doth the house of Jacob say, 'Hath the Spirit of Jehovah been shortened? Are these His doings?' Do not My words benefit the people that is walking uprightly?
8 然而，近來我的民興起如仇敵， 從那些安然經過不願打仗之人身上剝去外衣。
And yesterday My people for an enemy doth raise himself up, From the outer garment the honourable ornament ye strip off, From the confident passers by, Ye who are turning back from war.
9 你們將我民中的婦人從安樂家中趕出， 又將我的榮耀從她們的小孩子盡行奪去。
The women of My people ye cast out from its delightful house, From its sucklings ye take away My honour to the age.
10 你們起來去吧！ 這不是你們安息之所； 因為污穢使人毀滅， 而且大大毀滅。
Rise and go, for this [is] not the rest, Because of uncleanness it doth corrupt, And corruption is powerful.
11 若有人心存虛假，用謊言說： 我要向你們預言得清酒和濃酒。 那人就必作這民的先知。
If one is going [with] the wind, And [with] falsehood hath lied: 'I prophesy to thee of wine, and of strong drink,' He hath been the prophet of this people!
12 雅各家啊，我必要聚集你們， 必要招聚以色列剩下的人， 安置在一處，如波斯拉的羊， 又如草場上的羊群； 因為人數眾多就必大大喧嘩。
I do surely gather thee, O Jacob, all of thee, I surely bring together the remnant of Israel, Together I do set it as the flock of Bozrah, As a drove in the midst of its pasture, It maketh a noise because of man.
13 開路的在他們前面上去； 他們直闖過城門，從城門出去。 他們的王在前面行； 耶和華引導他們。
Gone up hath the breaker before them, They have broken through, Yea, they pass through the gate, Yea, they go out through it, And pass on doth their king before them, And Jehovah at their head!
