Micah 7
1 Woe is me! For I am as when they have gathered the summer fruits, as the grape gleanings of the vintage. There is no cluster to eat. My soul desires the first ripe fig.
Ahụhụ dịrị m! Adị m ka onye na-achịkọta mkpụrụ osisi vaịnị nʼọkọchị, mgbe a ghọkọtachara mkpụrụ dị nʼubi vaịnị. O nweghị ụyọkọ mkpụrụ vaịnị ọbụla fọdụrụ nke e nwere ike ịta, o nwekwaghị mkpụrụ fiig buru ụzọ chaa nke agụ ya na-agụsị m ike
2 The devout man has perished out of the earth, and there is none upright among men. They all lie in wait for blood. They hunt every man his brother with a net.
Ndị ezi omume agwụla nʼụwa, ọ dịkwaghị otu onye na-eme ihe ziri ezi fọdụrụ. Ha niile na-echere oghere ịkwafu ọbara, ha ji ụgbụ na-achụta nta, onye ọbụla na-achụ ụmụnne ya.
3 Their hands are upon that which is evil to do it diligently. The ruler asks, and the judge asks for a bribe. And the great man, he utters the evil desire of his soul. Thus they weave it together.
Ọrụ nke aka ha abụọ na-arụpụta nke ọma bụ ajọ omume. Onyeisi na-ana onyinye, onye ọkaikpe na-eri ngarị, ndị dị ike na-atụpụta ihe masịrị ha, si otu a na-akpagbu eziokwu.
4 The best of them is as a brier. The most upright is worse than a thorn hedge. The day of thy watchmen, even thy visitation, has come. Now shall be their perplexity.
Onye nke kachasị ibe ya ịdị mma nʼime ha dịka uke. Onye nke na-eme ihe ziri ezi nʼime ha jọrọ njọ karịa ogige ogwu. Ma ugbu a, ụbọchị Chineke na-eleta gị abịala, ụbọchị ahụ ndị nche gị na-akụ ekwe ịdọ aka na ntị. Ugbu a bụ oge ihe ịgba gharịị nye ha.
5 Trust ye not in a neighbor. Put ye not confidence in a friend. Keep the doors of thy mouth from her who lies in thy bosom.
Ekwenyerela onye agbataobi gị, atụkwasịla onye bụ ezi enyi gị obi. Kpachara anya gị, nʼihe gbasara okwu ọnụ gị, ọbụla dị nʼebe nwunye gị nọ.
6 For the son dishonors the father. The daughter rises up against her mother, the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law. A man's enemies are the men of his own house.
Nʼihi na nwa na-elelị nna ya anya. Nwa nwanyị na-ebili megide nne ya. Nwunye nwa megidekwa nne di ya, ndị iro mmadụ bụ ndị ezinaụlọ ya.
7 But as for me, I will look to Jehovah. I will wait for the God of my salvation. My God will hear me.
Ma mụ onwe m, ana m ele Onyenwe anyị anya nʼihi inyeaka ya. Eji m olileanya na-echere Chineke Onye nzọpụta m. Chineke m ga-anụ olu m.
8 Rejoice not against me, O my enemy. When I fall, I shall arise. When I sit in darkness, Jehovah will be a light to me.
Achịkwala m ọchị gị onye iro m. Mgbe m dara, aga m ebilitekwa. Mgbe m nọ nʼime ọchịchịrị, Onyenwe anyị nʼonwe ya ga-abụ ihe m.
9 I will bear the indignation of Jehovah, because I have sinned against him, until he pleads my case, and executes judgment for me. He will bring me forth to the light, and I shall behold his righteousness.
Nʼihi na m emehiela megide ya, aga m anabatara onwe m ahụhụ nke ọnụma Onyenwe anyị, tutu ruo mgbe ọ ga-ekpe ikpe m, mee ka m guzosie ike. Ọ ga-akpọpụta m nʼìhè; aga m elekwasịkwa ezi omume ya anya.
10 Then my enemy shall see it, and shame shall cover her who said to me, Where is Jehovah thy God? My eyes shall see my desire upon her. Now she shall be trodden down as the mire of the streets.
Mgbe ahụ, ndị iro m ga-ahụ, ihere ga-ekpuchi onye ahụ sịrị m, “Olee ebe Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị ahụ nọ.” Aga m eji anya m hụ mgbe ọ ga-ada, ọ bụladị dịka e si na-azọ ya ụkwụ, dịka apịtị dị nʼokporoụzọ.
11 A day for building thy walls! In that day the decree shall be far removed.
Ụbọchị a ga-ewugharị mgbidi gị niile na-abịa; ụbọchị a ga-eme ka oke ala gị saa mbara.
12 In that day they shall come to thee from Assyria and the cities of Egypt, and from Egypt even to the River, and from sea to sea, and mountain to mountain.
Nʼụbọchị ahụ, ha ga-abịakwute gị, site na Asịrịa ruo na obodo niile nke Ijipt, sitekwa nʼIjipt ruo Yufretis, site nʼosimiri ruo osimiri, sitekwa nʼugwu ruo nʼugwu.
13 Yet the land shall be desolate because of those who dwell therein, for the fruit of their doings.
Ma ụwa ga-aghọ ebe tọgbọrọ nʼefu nʼihi ndị bi nʼime ya, iji kwụọ ha ụgwọ ihe ọjọọ niile ha mere.
14 Feed thy people with thy rod, the flock of thy heritage, which dwell solitarily in the forest in the midst of Carmel. Let them feed in Bashan and Gilead, as in the days of old.
Were mkpanaka gị zụọ ndị gị, bụ igwe ewu na atụrụ nke ihe nketa gị, ndị bi naanị ha nʼoke ọhịa, nʼebe ịta nri nke ahịhịa ndụ jupụtara. Kwere ka ha taa ahịhịa ndụ nke Bashan, na nke Gilead, dịka na mgbe ochie.
15 As in the days of thy coming forth out of the land of Egypt I will show marvelous things to them.
“Dịka nʼụbọchị ahụ unu sitere nʼIjipt pụta, aga m egosi ha ọrụ ịtụnanya m niile.”
16 The nations shall see and be ashamed of all their might. They shall lay their hand upon their mouth. Their ears shall be deaf.
Mba dị iche iche ga-ahụ ya, ihere ga-emekwa ha, nʼime ịdị ike ha niile. Ha ga-ekpuchi aka nʼọnụ ha, ntị ga-echikwa ha.
17 They shall lick the dust like a serpent. Like crawling things of the earth they shall come trembling out of their close places. They shall come with fear to Jehovah our God, and shall be afraid because of thee.
Ha ga-aracha aja dịka agwọ, na dịka anụ dị iche iche, nke na-akpụ akpụ nʼala. Ha ga-eji ịma jijiji si nʼebe ha e wusiri ike pụta. Nʼihi egwu ha, ha ga-abịakwute Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke anyị. Ha ga-atụkwa egwu gị.
18 Who is a God like to thee, who pardons iniquity, and passes over the transgression of the remnant of his heritage? He does not retain his anger forever, because he delights in loving kindness.
Onye bụ chi ahụ dịka gị, nke na-agbaghara ma na-ehichapụ mmehie na njehie nke ndị fọdụrụ afọdụ nʼetiti ihe nketa gị? Ị naghị anọgide na-ewe iwe ruo mgbe ebighị ebi, kama ị bụ onye ọ na-atọ ụtọ inwe obi ebere.
19 He will again have compassion upon us. He will tread our iniquities under foot, and thou will cast all their sins into the depths of the sea.
Ọ ga-emekwara anyị ebere ọzọ. Ọ ga-azọdakwa mmehie anyị nʼokpuru ukwu ya, Ị ga-atụbakwa mmehie anyị niile nʼebe dịkarịsịrị omimi nke oke osimiri.
20 Thou will perform the truth to Jacob, and the loving kindness to Abraham, which thou have sworn to our fathers from the days of old.
Ị ga-egosi Jekọb ntụkwasị obi, gosikwa Ebraham ịhụnanya gị, dịka ị ṅụọrọ nna nna anyị ha nʼiyi, site na mgbe ochie.
