Micah 5
1 Now you will give yourselves deep wounds for grief; they will put up a wall round us: they will give the judge of Israel a blow on the face with a rod.
Alò, rasanble nou an twoup lame, O fi a lame yo. Li fin fè syèj kont nou. Ak gwo baton, yo va frape jij Israël la sou machwè.
2 And you, Beth-lehem Ephrathah, the least among the families of Judah, out of you one will come to me who is to be ruler in Israel; whose going out has been purposed from time past, from the eternal days.
Men ou menm, Bethléhem Éphrata, pi piti pami fanmi a Juda yo, nan ou va soti de Mwen Youn pou vin chèf an Israël. Lè pou L vin parèt la te etabli depi nan tan ansyen yo, jis rive nan jou etènite yo.
3 For this cause he will give them up till the time when she who is with child has given birth: then the rest of his brothers will come back to the children of Israel.
Akoz sa, Li va abandone yo jiskaske sila ki te gen doulè a, fin pouse fè pitit la. Nan lè sa a, retay nan frè li yo va retounen vin jwenn fis Israël yo.
4 And he will take his place and give food to his flock in the strength of the Lord, in the glory of the name of the Lord his God; and their resting-place will be safe: for now he will be great to the ends of the earth.
Konsa Li va leve pou mennen bann mouton Li an nan fòs SENYÈ a, nan majeste a non SENYÈ, Bondye Li a. Epi yo va viv, paske nan tan sa a, Li va pwisan jis rive nan dènye pwent latè.
5 And this will be our peace: when the Assyrian comes into our country and his feet are in our land, then we will put up against him seven keepers of the flocks and eight chiefs among men.
Li va lapè nou lè Asiryen yo vini nan peyi nou an, e lè li va mache nan palè nou yo. Konsa, nou va leve kont li sèt bèje ak uit chèf prensipal.
6 And they will make waste the land of Assyria with the sword, and the land of Nimrod with the edge of the sword: he will give us salvation from the Assyrian when he comes into our country, when his feet come inside the limit of our land.
Yo va regle peyi Assyrie ak nepe, ak peyi Nimrod la menm nan pòtay li yo. Konsa, li va delivre nou soti nan men Asiryen an lè l fè envazyon peyi nou an, ak lè li mache anndan fwontyè nou an.
7 And the rest of Jacob will be among the mass of peoples like dew from the Lord, like showers on the grass, which may not be kept back by man, or be waiting for the sons of men.
Epi konsa, retay Jacob la va nan mitan anpil nasyon pèp yo, tankou lawouze ki sòti nan SENYÈ a, tankou lapli k ap farinen sou zèb, ki p ap tann lòm, ni fè reta pou fis a lòm yo.
8 And the rest of Jacob will be among the nations, in the middle of the mass of peoples, like a lion among the beasts of the woods, like a young lion among the flocks of sheep: if he goes through, they will be crushed under foot and pulled to bits, and there will be no saviour.
Retay Jacob la va pami nasyon yo, pami anpil pèp; Tankou yon lyon pami bèt forè, tankou yon jèn lyon nan mitan bann mouton; li menm, si l pase, mache, dechire an mòso e p ap gen pèsòn ki pou delivre.
9 Your hand is lifted up against those who are against you, and all your haters will be cut off.
Ke men ou vin leve kont advèsè Ou yo e lènmi Ou yo va vin koupe retire nèt.
10 And it will come about in that day, says the Lord, that I will take away your horses from you, and will give your war-carriages to destruction:
“Li va rive, nan jou sa a,”, deklare SENYÈ a, “ke Mwen va retire cheval nou yo nan mitan nou e Mwen va detwi cha lagè nou yo.
11 I will have the towns of your land cut off and all your strong places pulled down:
“Anplis, Mwen va koupe retire vil nan peyi nou yo, e mwen va jete tout miray fòterès nou yo.
12 I will put an end to your use of secret arts, and you will have no more readers of signs:
Mwen va koupe retire zafè tout wanga soti nan men nou, e nou p ap gen divinò ankò.
13 And I will have your images and your pillars cut off from you; and you will no longer give worship to the work of your hands.
Mwen va retire imaj taye nou yo ak pilye sakre ki pami nou yo, pou nou pa adore zèv men nou yo ankò.
14 I will have your Asherahs pulled up from among you: and I will send destruction on your images.
Mwen va dechouke Asherim ki pami nou yo, e mwen va detwi vil nou yo.
15 And my punishment will be effected on the nations with such burning wrath as they have not had word of.
Epi Mwen va egzekite vanjans kòlè ak gwo mekontantman sou nasyon ki pa t koute yo.”
