Mikas 3
1 Da sagde jeg: Hør dog, I Jakobs Høvdinger, I Dommere af Israels Hus! Kan Kendskab til Ret ej ventes af eder,
And I said hear please O chiefs of Jacob and O rulers of [the] house of Israel ¿ not [belong] to you [does] to know justice.
2 I, som hader det gode og elsker. det onde, I, som flår Huden af Folk. og Kødet af deres Ben,
Haters of good and lovers of (evil *Q(K)*) tearers away of skin their from on them and flesh their from on bones their.
3 æder mit Folks Kød og flænger dem Huden af Kroppen, sønderbryder deres Ben. og breder dem som Kød i en Gryde, som Suppekød i en Kedel?
And [those] who they have eaten [the] flesh of people my and skin their from on them they have stripped off and bones their they have broken in pieces and they have chopped [them] up just as in the pot and like meat in [the] midst of a caldron.
4 Engang skal de råbe til HERREN, han lader dem uden Svar; da skjuler han sit Åsyn for. dem, fordi deres Gerninger er onde.
Then they will cry out to Yahweh and not he will answer them and he will hide face his from them at the time that since they have made evil deeds their.
5 Så siger HERREN om Profeterne, de, som vildleder mit Folk, de, som råber om Fred, når kun de får noget at tygge, men ypper Krig med den, der intet giver dem i Munden:
Thus he says Yahweh on the prophets who mislead people my who bite with teeth their and they proclaim peace and [the one] who not he puts on mouth their and they consecrate on him war.
6 Derfor skal I opleve Nat uden. Syner, Mørke, som ej bringer Spådom; Solen skal gå ned for Profeterne, Dagen skal sortne for dem.
Therefore night [will belong] to you from vision and it will grow dark to you from divining and it will go the sun on the prophets and it will be dark on them the day.
7 Til Skamme skal Seeren blive, blues skal de, som spår; alle skal tilhylle Skægget, thi Svar er der ikke fra Gud.
And they will be ashamed the seers and they will be abashed those [who] divine and they will cover over a moustache all of them for there not [will be] an answer of God.
8 Jeg derimod er ved HERRENs Ånd fuld af Styrke, af Ret og af Kraft til at forkynde Jakob dets Brøde, Israel, hvad det har syndet.
And but I I am full power with [the] spirit of Yahweh and justice and might to declare to Jacob transgression its and to Israel sin its.
9 Hør det, I Jakobs Huses Høvdinger, I Dommere af Israels Hus, I, som afskyr Ret og gør alt, som er lige, kroget,
Hear please this O chiefs of [the] house of Jacob and O rulers of [the] house of Israel who loathe justice and every straight [thing] they make crooked.
10 som bygger Zion med Blod. og Jerusalem med Uret.
[who] build Zion with blood and Jerusalem with injustice.
11 Dets Høvdinger dømmer for Gave, dets Præster kender Ret for Løn; dets Profeter spår for Sølv og støtter sig dog til HERREN: "Er HERREN ej i vor Midte? Over os kommer intet ondt."
Chiefs its - for a bribe they judge and priests its for a price they teach and prophets its for money they divine and on Yahweh they depend saying ¿ not [is] Yahweh in midst our not it will come on us calamity.
12 For eders, Skyld skal derfor Zion pløjes som en Mark, Jerusalem blive til Grushobe, Tempelbjerget til Krathøj.
Therefore on account of you Zion a field it will be plowed and Jerusalem heaps of ruins it will be and [the] mountain of the house high places of a forest.
