< Micah 4 >

1 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 to it.
Bara dhumaa keessa tulluun mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo tulluuwwan hunda keessaa ol dheeratee dhaabata; inni gaarran caalaa ol ol jedha; namoonnis itti yaaʼu.
2 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.
Saboonni baayʼeen dhufanii akkana jedhu; “Kottaa gara tulluu Waaqayyoo, gara mana Waaqa Yaaqoob ol baanaa. Inni akka nu daandii isaa irra deemnuuf karaa isaa nu barsiisa.” Seerri Xiyoon keessaa, dubbiin Waaqayyoo immoo Yerusaalem keessaa dhufa.
3 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, nor shall they learn war any more.
Inni namoota hedduu gidduutti murtii kennee saboota jajjaboo gargar fagoo jiranis walitti araarsa. Isaan goraadee isaanii tumanii maarashaa, eeboo isaanii illee haamtuu tolfatu. Sabni tokko saba biraatti goraadee hin luqqifatu yookaan waraanaaf jedhanii siʼachi nama hin leenjisan.
4 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 has spoken it.
Namni hundi muka wayinii isaatii fi muka harbuu isaa jala taaʼa; Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu dubbateeraatii namni isaan sodaachisu tokko iyyuu hin jiru.
5 For all the peoples walk each one in the name of his god. And we will walk in the name of Jehovah our God forever and ever.
Saboonni hundinuu maqaa waaqota isaaniitiin deddeebiʼu; nu immoo bara baraa hamma bara baraatti maqaa Waaqayyo Waaqa keenyaatiin deddeebina.
6 In that day, says Jehovah, I will assemble that which is lame, and I will gather that which is driven away, and that which I have afflicted.
Waaqayyo akkana jedha; “Ani bara sana naafa walittin qaba; warra boojiʼamanii fi warra ani gaddisiises walittin qaba.
7 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 forever.
Ani warra naafa hambaa, warra ariʼame immoo saba jabaa nan godha. Waaqayyo guyyaa sanaa jalqabee hamma bara baraatti Tulluu Xiyoon irratti bulchaa isaanii taʼa.
8 And thou, O tower of the flock, the hill of the daughter of Zion, to thee it shall come. Yea, the former dominion shall come, the kingdom of the daughter of Jerusalem.
Yaa gamoo eegumsa bushaayee, yaa daʼoo Intala Xiyoon, ol aantummaan durii siif ni deebifama; mootummaan Intala Yerusaalem ni dhufa.”
9 Now why do thou cry out aloud? Is there no king in thee? Has thy counselor perished, that pangs have taken hold of thee as of a woman in travail?
Ati amma maaliif akkana iyyitee boossa? Ati mootii hin qabduu? Wanni ati akka dubartii ciniinsuun qabee miixattuuf gorsaan kee badeetii?
10 Be in pain, and labor to bring forth, O daughter of Zion, like a woman in travail. For now thou shall go forth out of the city, and shall dwell in the field, and shall come even to Babylon. There thou shall be rescued. There Jehovah will redeem thee from the hand of thine enemies.
Yaa Intala Xiyoon, akkuma dubartii ciniinsuun qabeetti aadi; ati amma bakkee keessa qubachuuf magaalaa keessaa baʼuu qabdaatii. Ati Baabilon dhaqxa; achitti ni baraaramta. Waaqayyo achitti harka diina keetii keessaa si fura.
11 And now many nations are assembled against thee, who say, Let her be defiled, and let our eye see our desire upon Zion.
Amma garuu saboonni hedduun si marsaniiru. Isaanis, “Isheen haa xurooftu; iji keenya xiyyeeffatee Xiyoonin haa ilaalu!” jedhu.
12 But they know not the thoughts of Jehovah, nor do they understand his counsel, for he has gathered them as the sheaves to the threshing-floor.
Isaan garuu yaada Waaqayyoo hin beekan; isaan karoora isaa kan inni akkuma bissii oobdiitti walitti qabe sana hin hubatan.
13 Arise and thresh, O daughter of Zion, for I will make thy horn iron, and I will make thy hoofs brass, and thou shall beat many peoples in pieces. And I will devote their gain to Jehovah, and their substance to the Lord of the whole earth.
“Yaa Intala Xiyoon kaʼiitii midhaan dhaʼi; ani gaanfa sibiilaa siif nan kennaatii; ani kottee naasii siif nan kenna; atis saboota baayʼee caccabsita.” Ati horii isaan karaa hamaadhaan argatan Waaqayyoof kennita; qabeenya isaaniis Gooftaa lafa hundaatiif kennita.
