< 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 it shall come to pass in the last days That the mountain of the house of Jehovah shall be established at the head of the mountains, And exalted above the hills; And the nations shall flow to 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, saying, “Come, let us go up to the mountain of Jehovah, To the house of the God of Jacob, That he may teach us his ways, And that we may walk in his paths!” For from Zion shall go forth a 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.
He shall be a judge of many nations, And an umpire of many kingdoms afar off. They shall beat their swords into ploughshares, And their spears into pruning-hooks; Nation shall not lift up the 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 one under his vine, And under his fig-tree, And none shall make them afraid; 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.
Though all the nations walk every one in the name of its God, Yet will we 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, I will gather the halting, And the far scattered I will assemble, And those 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.
I will make the halting a remnant, And the far scattered a strong nation; And Jehovah shall reign over them in mount Zion, Henceforth, even forever.
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, O hill of the daughter of Zion, to thee it shall come, To thee shall come the former dominion, Even 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?
And now why dost thou cry aloud? Is there no king within thee? Have thy counsellors 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.
Yea, writhe, and be in anguish, O daughter of Zion, like a woman in travail! For now shalt thou go forth from the city, and dwell in the field; Thou shalt go even to Babylon; Yet there shalt thou be delivered. Jehovah will 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.”
Now many nations gather themselves against thee, Who say, Let her be polluted, And let our eyes gaze 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, And understand not his purposes; For he gathereth them as sheaves into the thrashing-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 thrash, O daughter of Zion! For I will make thy horns iron, And thy hoofs brass; Thou shalt beat in pieces many nations, And thou shalt devote their spoils to Jehovah, Their substance to the Lord of the whole earth.
