Micah 2
1 Woe to those who devise iniquity and plot evil on their beds! At morning’s light they accomplish it because the power is in their hands.
Malè a sila k ap fè plan inikite yo, k ap manevre mechanste sou kabann yo! Lè maten rive, yo pratike li, paske sa nan pouvwa a men yo.
2 They covet fields and seize them; they take away houses. They deprive a man of his home, a fellow man of his inheritance.
Yo lanvi chan a lòt, epi konsa yo sezi yo, kay yo, e konsa yo pran yo. Yo oprimen yon nonm ak kay li, Yon nonm ak tout eritaj li.
3 Therefore this is what the LORD says: “I am planning against this nation a disaster from which you cannot free your necks. Then you will not walk so proudly, for it will be a time of calamity.
Pou sa, pale SENYÈ a: “Gade byen, Mwen ap fè yon plan kont pèp sa a, yon malè k ap fè nou p ap ka retire kou nou; ni nou p ap ka mache ak awogans, paske sa se yon move tan.
4 In that day they will take up a proverb against you and taunt you with this bitter lamentation: ‘We are utterly ruined! He has changed the portion of my people. How He has removed it from me! He has allotted our fields to traitors.’”
Nan jou sa a, yo va fè leve kont nou yon pawòl; mokè yo va kriye ak yon lamantasyon tris. Yo va di: ‘Nou fin detwi nèt! Li divize eritaj a pèp mwen an. A la retire, Li retire l nan men mwen! Li bay moun trèt yo! Li divize bay chan nou yo!’”
5 Therefore, you will have no one in the assembly of the LORD to divide the land by lot.
Akoz sa, nou p ap gen pèsòn ki va tann lign mezi pou fè tiraj osò nan asanble SENYÈ a.
6 “Do not preach,” they preach. “Do not preach these things; disgrace will not overtake us.”
“Pa pwofetize”!—yo pwofetize— “Pa pwofetize de bagay de sila yo. Repwòch sa yo p ap janm rive nou.”
7 Should it be said, O house of Jacob, “Is the Spirit of the LORD impatient? Are these the things He does?” Do not My words bring good to him who walks uprightly?
Èske sa dwe pale, O Lakay Jacob? “Èske Lespri SENYÈ a pa an kolè? Èske bagay sa yo se zèv pa Li? Èske pawòl Mwen yo pa fè byen pou sila k ap mache dwat la?”
8 But of late My people have risen up like an enemy: You strip off the splendid robe from unsuspecting passersby like men returning from battle.
Men koulye a, pèp Mwen an leve tankou yon ènmi. Nou chire retire manto ak abiman de sila k ap pase pa aza yo; moun k ap retounen, soti nan lagè.
9 You drive the women of My people from their pleasant homes. You take away My blessing from their children forever.
Fanm a pèp Mwen yo, nou chase yo deyò pou soti kite bèl ti kay yo. Nan men jèn pitit yo, nou rache retire tout benediksyon Mwen, jis pou tout tan.
10 Arise and depart, for this is not your place of rest, because its defilement brings destruction— a grievous destruction!
Leve ale! Se pa isit ou ap jwenn repo; li plen ak sa ki pa pwòp, sa kab detwi, menm avèk yon destriksyon byen grav.
11 If a man of wind were to come and say falsely, “I will preach to you of wine and strong drink,” he would be just the preacher for this people!
Si yon nonm ap mache nan yon lespri manti pou l di: “Mwen va pale avèk nou konsènan diven ak bwason fò,” li ta kapab menm vin pwofèt a pèp sa a.
12 I will surely gather all of you, O Jacob; I will collect the remnant of Israel. I will bring them together like sheep in a pen, like a flock in the midst of its pasture— a noisy throng.
Anverite, Mwen va rasanble nou tout, O Jacob! Anverite, Mwen va ranmase retay Israël yo. Mwen va mete yo ansanm tankou mouton nan pak; tankou yon bann mouton nan mitan patiraj yo. Y ap plenn ak moun.
13 One who breaks open the way will go up before them; they will break through the gate, and go out by it. Their King will pass through before them, the LORD as their leader.
Sila k ap ouvri kraze chemen a va ale devan yo. Yo kraze pòtay la pou soti. Se wa yo ki pase devan yo, ak SENYÈ la a latèt yo.
