Micah 1
1 This is the word of the LORD that came to Micah the Moreshite in the days of Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah—what he saw regarding Samaria and Jerusalem:
Wach Jehova Nyasaye mane obiro ne Mika ja-Moresheth e ndalo loch Jotham, Ahaz kod Hezekia Ruodhi mag Juda e fweny mane oneno kuom Samaria kod Jerusalem.
2 Hear, O peoples, all of you; listen, O earth, and everyone in it! May the Lord GOD bear witness against you, the Lord from His holy temple.
Winjuru, yaye un ogendini duto. Chik iti yaye piny gi ji duto modakie iye, mondo Jehova Nyasaye mar oganda lweny obed janeno kuomu, mondo Ruoth Nyasaye otim kamano gie hekalu mare maler.
3 For behold, the LORD comes forth from His dwelling place; He will come down and tread on the high places of the earth.
Neuru! Jehova Nyasaye biro kowuok e kar dakne; olor piny kendo onyono kuonde ma otingʼore mag piny.
4 The mountains will melt beneath Him, and the valleys will split apart, like wax before the fire, like water rushing down a slope.
Gode noleny e bwoye kendo holni nobarore kapogore koni gi koni, mana ka odok mobolie mach, kendo mana ka pi maburore koa ewi thur.
5 All this is for the transgression of Jacob and the sins of the house of Israel. What is the transgression of Jacob? Is it not Samaria? And what is the high place of Judah? Is it not Jerusalem?
Magi duto timore nikech bayo yo mar Jakobo, nikech richo mar dhood Israel. Bayo yo mar Jakobo to en angʼo? Donge en Samaria? Koso kama otingʼore mar Juda to kanye? Donge en Jerusalem?
6 Therefore I will make Samaria a heap of rubble in the open field, a planting area for a vineyard. I will pour her stones into the valley and expose her foundations.
“Kuom mano analok Samaria obed pith mar yugi, kama ipidhoe mzabibu. Abiro olo kite mag dalano nyaka e holo kendo abiro weyo mise mage nono li.
7 All her carved images will be smashed to pieces; all her wages will be burned in the fire, and I will destroy all her idols. Since she collected the wages of a prostitute, they will be used again on a prostitute.
Gige mopa molamo ibiro toyo matindo tindo; kendo mich mag hekalu mochiwo ibiro wangʼ gi mach; abiro ketho kido mage molos duto. Nikech michgo nochoko koa e chudo mar ochot, omiyo koro ibiro ti kodgi kaka chudo mar ochot.”
8 Because of this I will lament and wail; I will walk barefoot and naked. I will howl like a jackal and mourn like an ostrich.
Kuom mano, abiro ywak kendo dengo; abiro wuotho duk kod tienda nono. Anaywag ka ondiek manie thim kendo nadengi ka tula.
9 For her wound is incurable; it has reached even Judah; it has approached the gate of my people, as far as Jerusalem itself.
Nikech adhondene ok thiedhre; kata mana Juda adhondenego osemako. Masira osechopo nyaka e dhoranga joga, nyaka ei Jerusalem.
10 Do not tell it in Gath; do not weep at all. Roll in the dust in Beth-leaphrah.
Kik unyis jo-Gath wachni bende kik uywagi kata matin. E dala Beth Ofra ngʼielreuru e buru.
11 Depart in shameful nakedness, O dwellers of Shaphir. The dwellers of Zaanan will not come out. Beth-ezel is in mourning; its support is taken from you.
Un joma odak Shafir kadhuru ka un duge kod wichkuot. Jogo modak Zanaan ok nowuog oko. Beth Ezel ni e kuyo nikech gima orite osemaye.
12 For the dwellers of Maroth pined for good, but calamity came down from the LORD, even to the gate of Jerusalem.
Joma odak Maroth chunygi chandore ka nigi rem mapek ka girito kony, nikech masira osebiro koa kuom Jehova Nyasaye mochopo nyaka dhoranga Jerusalem.
13 Harness your chariot horses, O dweller of Lachish. You were the beginning of sin to the Daughter of Zion, for the transgressions of Israel were found in you.
Un joma odak Lakish tweuru fareseu e gecheu mag lweny. Un ema ne umiyo nyar Sayun odonjo e richo, nikech timbe jo-Israel maricho noa kuomu.
14 Therefore, send farewell gifts to Moresheth-gath; the houses of Achzib will prove deceptive to the kings of Israel.
Emomiyo gouru oriti ne jo-Meresheth Gath, ok nochak ochungʼ kendo. Dala maduongʼ mar Akzib osewuondo ruodhi mag Israel.
15 I will again bring a conqueror against you, O dweller of Mareshah. The glory of Israel will come to Adullam.
Un joma odak Maresha, abiro ketou e lwet wasiku mabiro loyou. Ruodh Israel biro pondo e rogo man Adulam.
16 Shave yourselves bald and cut off your hair in mourning for your precious children; make yourselves as bald as an eagle, for they will go from you into exile.
Lieluru wiyeu mapoth ka udengo nikech nyithindo muketo e chunyu ibiro mau miter e twech kaka wasumbini; keturu bondou mapoth mana ka achuth.
