Mika 4

1 E ndalo giko got mogerie hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye nobed gi teko e kind gode duto molwore, kendo ibiro tingʼe malo moyombo gode duto kendo ogendini duto nobi ma pongʼe.

But in the latter days it shall come to pass, that the mountain of Jehovah’s house shall be established on the top of the mountains, and it shall be exalted above the hills; and peoples shall flow unto it.

2 Ogendini mangʼeny nobi kawacho niya, “Biuru wadhi e got mar Jehova Nyasaye, e od Nyasach Jakobo. Enopuonjwa wechene mondo wawuothie e yorene.” Chik nowuog Sayun, kendo wach Jehova Nyasaye nowuog koa Jerusalem.

And many nations shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of Jehovah, and to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths. For out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of Jehovah from Jerusalem;

3 Obiro ngʼado bura e kind ogendini kendo nokel kwe e kind pinje marateke man machiegni kod mago man mabor. Ginithedh ligengligi olokre kwe mag pur kendo tongegi ginithedhi olokre pende keyo. Onge piny mano kedi gi nyawadgi gi ligangla bende ok ginichak gipuonjre ne lweny kendo.

and he will judge between many peoples, and will decide concerning strong nations afar off: and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning-hooks; nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.

4 Ngʼato ka ngʼato nobed e bwo yiende owuon mar mzabibu kendo e bwo yiende owuon mar ngʼowu, kendo onge ngʼama nochak omigi luoro nikech Jehova Nyasaye Maratego osewacho.

But they shall sit every man under his vine and under his fig-tree; and none shall make them afraid: for the mouth of Jehovah of hosts hath spoken it.

5 Kata obedo ni ogendini mamoko duto nyalo wuotho e nying nyisechegi, wan to wabiro wuotho e nying Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa manyaka chiengʼ.

For all the peoples walk every one in the name of his god; and we will walk in the name of Jehovah our God for ever and ever.

6 Jehova Nyasaye wacho kama, “E odiechiengno anachok rongʼonde, gi joma oter e twech kod joma asekelo negi lit.

In that day, saith Jehovah, will I assemble that which is lame, and I will gather that which is driven away, and that which I have afflicted;

7 Abiro miyo rongʼode dongʼ kangima, to joma odhi e twech nobed oganda motegno, Jehova Nyasaye noritgi e got mar Sayun chakre odiechiengno nyaka chiengʼ.

and I will make that which was lame a remnant, and that which was cast far off a strong nation: and Jehovah will reign over them in mount Zion from henceforth even for ever.

8 Yaye, in kama oger motingʼore mar rito rombe, in ohinga mar Sayun, ibiro duogni duongʼ mari machon; nyar Jerusalem nobed jatelo.”

And thou, O tower of the flock, the hill of the daughter of Zion, unto thee shall it come, yea, the former dominion shall come, the kingdom of the daughter of Jerusalem.

9 Angʼo momiyo koro iywak matek kamano, ionge gi ruoth koso? Dipo ka jangʼadni rieko osetho, marem chami mana ka dhako mamuoch kayo?

Now why dost thou cry out aloud? Is there no king in thee, is thy counsellor perished, that pangs have taken hold of thee as of a woman in travail?

10 Ywari gi rem, yaye Nyar Sayun, mana ka dhako mamuoch kayo, nikech koro ochuni ni nyaka iwe dala maduongʼ mondo idhi idagie pap nono. Ibiro dhi Babulon kendo kuno ema nokonyie. Jehova Nyasaye noresi kuno kogoli e lwet wasiki.

Be in pain, and labor to bring forth, O daughter of Zion, like a woman in travail; for now shalt thou go forth out of the city, and shalt dwell in the field, and shalt come even unto Babylon: there shalt thou be rescued; there will Jehovah redeem thee from the hand of thine enemies.

11 To koro ogendini mangʼeny osechokore mondo giked kodi. Giwacho niya, “Wamiye obed mogak, wagouru siboi ni Sayun.”

And now many nations are assembled against thee, that say, Let her be defiled, and let our eye see [our desire] upon Zion.

12 To gikia pach Jehova Nyasaye. Ok giwinj chenrone, En ema ochokogi ka cham midino e dier ot.

But they know not the thoughts of Jehovah, neither understand they his counsel; for he hath gathered them as the sheaves to the threshing-floor.

13 “Chungi idin cham, yaye nyar Sayun, nikech abiro sidhoni tunge mag chuma. Abiro rwakoni ombongʼ tielo mag nyinyo kendo ibiro toyo matindo tindo pinje mangʼeny.” Mwandu magiseyudo e yore mobam ubiro walone Jehova Nyasaye, mwandugi nochiwne Ruoth Nyasaye mar piny duto.

Arise and thresh, O daughter of Zion; for I will make thy horn iron, and I will make thy hoofs brass; and thou shalt beat in pieces many peoples: and I will devote their gain unto Jehovah, and their substance unto the Lord of the whole earth.
