Micah 5
1 Now, O daughter of troops, mobilize your troops; for a siege is laid against us! With a rod they will strike the cheek of the judge of Israel.
| الآنَ احْشُدِي جُيُوشَكِ يَا مَدِينَةَ الْجُيُوشِ، لأَنَّ الْعَدُوَّ يُقِيمُ عَلَيْكِ حِصَاراً، وَسَيَضْرِبُ خَدَّ قَاضِي إِسْرَائِيلَ بِالْقَضِيبِ. | ١ |
2 But you, Bethlehem Ephrathah, who are small among the clans of Judah, out of you will come forth for Me One to be ruler over Israel — One whose origins are of old, from the days of eternity.
| أَمَّا أَنْتِ يَا بَيْتَ لَحْمِ أَفْرَاتَةَ، مَعَ أَنَّكِ قَرْيَةٌ صَغِيرَةٌ بَيْنَ أُلُوفِ قُرَى يَهُوذَا، إِلّا أَنَّ مِنْكِ يَخْرُجُ لِي مَنْ يُصْبِحُ مَلِكاً فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ وَأَصْلُهُ مُنْذُ الْقَدِيمِ، مُنْذُ الأَزَلِ. | ٢ |
3 Therefore Israel will be abandoned until she who is in labor has given birth; then the rest of His brothers will return to the children of Israel.
| لِذَلِكَ يُسَلِّمُ الرَّبُّ شَعْبَهُ إِلَى أَعْدَائِهِمْ إِلَى أَنْ تَلِدَ مَنْ تُقَاسِي مِنَ الْمَخَاضِ، عِنْدَئِذٍ تَرْجِعُ بَقِيَّةُ إِخْوَتِهِ مِنَ السَّبْيِ إِلَى شَعْبِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٣ |
4 He will stand and shepherd His flock in the strength of the LORD, in the majestic name of the LORD His God. And they will dwell securely, for then His greatness will extend to the ends of the earth.
| فَيَقُومُ وَيَرْعَى شَعْبَهُ بِقُوَّةِ الرَّبِّ وَبِجَلالِ اسْمِ الرَّبِّ إِلَهِهِ، فَيَعِيشُونَ بِأَمْنٍ، لأَنَّ عَظَمَتَهُ تَمْتَدُّ إِلَى أَقَاصِي الأَرْضِ. | ٤ |
5 And He will be our peace when Assyria invades our land and tramples our citadels. We will raise against it seven shepherds, even eight leaders of men.
| وَيُصْبِحُ الرَّبُّ سَلامَهُمْ، إِذْ حِينَ يَزْحَفُ الأَشُّورِيُّونَ إِلَى أَرْضِنَا وَيَطَأُونَ تُرَابَنَا، فَإِنَّنَا نُثِيرُ عَلَيْهِمْ سَبْعَةَ رُعَاةٍ وَثَمَانِيَةَ أُمَرَاءَ مِنَ النَّاسِ، | ٥ |
6 And they will rule the land of Assyria with the sword, and the land of Nimrod with the blade drawn. So He will deliver us when Assyria invades our land and marches into our borders.
| فَيَحْكُمُونَ بِلادَ أَشُّورَ بِقُوَّةِ السَّيْفِ، وَيَقْتَحِمُونَ بَوَّابَاتِ أَرْضِ نِمْرُودَ، وَيُنْقِذُنَا (اللهُ) مِنَ الأَشُّورِيِّينَ عِنْدَمَا يَزْحَفُونَ إِلَى أَرْضِنَا وَيَطَأُونَ تُخُومَنَا. | ٦ |
7 Then the remnant of Jacob will be in the midst of many peoples like dew from the LORD, like showers on the grass, which do not wait for man or linger for mankind.
| عِنْدَئِذٍ تَغْدُو بَقِيَّةُ ذُرِّيَّةِ يَعْقُوبَ بَيْنَ الأُمَمِ الْكَثِيرَةِ كَنَدىً مِنْ لَدُنِ الرَّبِّ، كَالْمَطَرِ الْوَابِلِ عَلَى الْعُشْبِ الَّذِي لَا يَتَوَانَى مِنْ أَجْلِ النَّاسِ أَوْ يَرْجُو أَبْنَاءَ الْبَشَرِ. | ٧ |
8 Then the remnant of Jacob will be among the nations, in the midst of many peoples, like a lion among the beasts of the forest, like a young lion among flocks of sheep, which tramples and tears as it passes through, with no one to rescue them.
| وَتَكُونُ بَقِيَّةُ ذُرِّيَّةِ يَعْقُوبَ بَيْنَ الشُّعُوبِ الْكَثِيرَةِ كَأَسَدٍ بَيْنَ وُحُوشِ الْغَابَةِ، أَوْ كَشِبْلٍ بَيْنَ قُطْعَانِ الْغَنَمِ، الَّذِي إِنِ اقْتَحَمَ يَدُوسُ وَيَفْتَرِسُ وَلَيْسَ مِنْ مُنْقِذٍ. | ٨ |
9 Your hand will be lifted over your foes, and all your enemies will be cut off.
| فَتَتَعَاظَمُ يَا شَعْبِي عَلَى مُبْغِضِيكَ، وَيَبِيدُ جَمِيعُ أَعْدَائِكَ. | ٩ |
10 “In that day,” declares the LORD, “I will remove your horses from among you and wreck your chariots.
| وَيَقُولُ الرَّبُّ: فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ أَسْتَأْصِلُ خُيُولَكُمْ مِنْ بَيْنِكُمْ وَأُدَمِّرُ مَرْكَبَاتِ حَرْبِكُمْ، | ١٠ |
11 I will remove the cities of your land and tear down all your strongholds.
| وَأُخَرِّبُ مُدُنَكُمْ وَأَهْدِمُ جَمِيعَ حُصُونِكُمْ، | ١١ |
12 I will cut the sorceries from your hand, and you will have no fortune-tellers.
| وَأَقْضِي عَلَى السِّحْرِ فِي دِيَارِكُمْ وَلا يَبْقَى لَكُمْ عَرَّافُونَ، | ١٢ |
13 I will also cut off the carved images and sacred pillars from among you, so that you will no longer bow down to the work of your own hands.
| وَأَنْتَزِعُ تَمَاثِيلَكُمْ وَأَنْصَابَكُمْ مِنْ وَسَطِكُمْ، فَلا تَعُودُونَ تَسْجُدُونَ لأَصْنَامٍ مِنْ صُنْعِ أَيْدِيكُمْ. | ١٣ |
14 I will root out the Asherah poles from your midst and demolish your cities.
| وَأُفْنِي عَشْتَارُوثَ مِنْ بَيْنِكُمْ، وَأَهْدِمُ مُدُنَكُمْ، | ١٤ |
15 I will take vengeance in anger and wrath upon the nations that have not obeyed Me.”
| وَبِغَضَبٍ وَسَخَطٍ أَنْتَقِمُ مِنَ الأُمَمِ الَّتِي لَمْ تُطِعْنِي. | ١٥ |
