< 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.
And it has come to pass, In the latter end of the days, The mountain of the house of YHWH Is established above the top of the mountains, And it has been lifted up above the hills, And flowed to it have peoples.
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 gone have many nations and said, “Come and we go up to the mountain of YHWH, And to the house of the God of Jacob, And He teaches us of His ways, And we walk in His paths,” For a law goes forth from Zion, And a word of YHWH 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 has judged between many peoples, And given a decision to mighty nations far off, They have beaten their swords to plowshares, And their spears to pruning-hooks, Nation does not lift up sword to nation, Nor do they learn war anymore.
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.
And they have sat each under his vine, And under his fig tree, And there is none troubling, For the mouth of YHWH of Hosts has spoken.
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, Each in the name of its god—and we, We walk in the Name of our God YHWH, For all time and forever.
6 Jehova Nyasaye wacho kama, “E odiechiengno anachok rongʼonde, gi joma oter e twech kod joma asekelo negi lit.
“In that day,” a declaration of YHWH, “I gather the halting one, And the driven away one I bring together, And she whom 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 have set the halting for a remnant, And the far-off for a mighty nation, And YHWH has reigned over them in Mount Zion, From now on, and for all time.
8 Yaye, in kama oger motingʼore mar rito rombe, in ohinga mar Sayun, ibiro duogni duongʼ mari machon; nyar Jerusalem nobed jatelo.”
And you, O Tower of Eder, Fort of the daughter of Zion, to you it comes, Indeed, the former rule has come in, The kingdom to 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 do you shout aloud? Is there no king in you? Has your counselor perished, That pain as of a travailing woman has taken hold of you?
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 pained, and bring forth, O daughter of Zion, As a travailing woman, For now you go forth from the city, And you have dwelt in the field, And you have gone to Babylon, There you are delivered, There YHWH redeems you from the hand of your enemies.
11 To koro ogendini mangʼeny osechokore mondo giked kodi. Giwacho niya, “Wamiye obed mogak, wagouru siboi ni Sayun.”
And now, many nations have gathered against you, who are saying: “Let her be defiled, and our eyes look on Zion.”
12 To gikia pach Jehova Nyasaye. Ok giwinj chenrone, En ema ochokogi ka cham midino e dier ot.
They have not known the thoughts of YHWH, Nor have they understood His counsel, For He has gathered them as a sheaf [into] a 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 make your horn iron, And I make your hooves bronze, And you have beaten small many peoples, And I have devoted to YHWH their gain, And their wealth to the Lord of the whole earth!
