< Micah 6 >
1 Give ear now to the words of the Lord: Up! put forward your cause before the mountains, let your voice be sounding among the hills.
Ita, denggem no ania ti kuna ni Yahweh. Kinuna ni Mikias kenkuana, “Bumangonka ket idatagmo ti kasom iti kabanbantayan; bay- am a mangngeg dagiti turod ti timekmo.
2 Give ear, O you mountains, to the Lord's cause, and take note, you bases of the earth: for the Lord has a cause against his people, and he will take it up with Israel.
Denggenyo ti darum ni Yahweh, dakayo a kabanbantayan, ken dakayo a naandor a pamuon iti daga. Ta adda darum ni Yahweh kadagiti tattaona, ket ilabanna iti pangukoman a maibusor iti Israel.”
3 O my people, what have I done to you? how have I been a weariness to you? give answer against me.
Tattaok, ania ti inaramidko kadakayo? Kasano koma a binannogkayo? Agsaksikayo a maibusor kaniak!
4 For I took you up out of the land of Egypt and made you free from the prison-house; I sent before you Moses, Aaron, and Miriam.
Ta inruarkayo iti daga ti Egipto ket insalakankayo iti balay ti pannakaadipen. Imbaonko kadakayo ni Moises, ni Aaron, kenni Miriam.
5 O my people, keep in mind now what was designed by Balak, king of Moab, and the answer which Balaam, son of Beor, gave him; the events, from Shittim to Gilgal, so that you may be certain of the upright acts of the Lord.
Tattaok, lagipenyo ti pinanggep ni Balak nga ari ti Moab, ken ania ti insungbat kenkuana ni Balaam nga anak ni Beor, bayat a mapmapankayo manipud Sittim agingga iti Gilgal, tapno maammoanyo ti nalinteg nga inaramidko, Siak a ni Yahweh.”
6 With what am I to come before the Lord and go with bent head before the high God? am I to come before him with burned offerings, with young oxen a year old?
Ania ti rumbeng nga idatagko kenni Yahweh, kas agrukbabak iti kangatoan a Dios? Nasken kadi nga umayak kenkuana nga addaan ti daton a mapuoran, iti urbon a baka a natawenan?
7 Will the Lord be pleased with thousands of sheep or with ten thousand rivers of oil? am I to give my first child for my wrongdoing, the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?
Maay-ayo ngata ni Yahweh kadagiti rinibu a karnero a kalakian, wenno dagiti sangapulo-ribu a karayan iti lana? Itedko kadi ti inauna nga anakko a para iti salungasingko, ti bunga ti bagik a para iti basolko?
8 He has made clear to you, O man, what is good; and what is desired from you by the Lord; only doing what is right, and loving mercy, and walking without pride before your God.
Imbagana kenka, O tao, no ania ti naimbag, ken ania ti sapsapulen ni Yahweh kenka: Aramidem ti nalinteg, ayatem ti kina-imbag, ken magnaka a sipapakumbaba iti Diosmo.
9 The voice of the Lord is crying out to the town: Give ear, you tribes and the meeting of the town.
Ti timek ni Yahweh ket agiwarwaragawag iti siudad— uray ti kinasirib ket bigbigenna ti naganmo: “Ipangagmo ti sarukod, ken ti nangisaad daytoy iti ayanna.
10 Am I to let the stores of the evil-doer go out of my memory, and the short measure, which is cursed?
Adda kinabaknang kadagiti babbalay dagiti managdakdakes ken naulbod, dagiti ulbod a timbangan a makarimon.
11 Is it possible for me to let wrong scales and the bag of false weights go without punishment?
Ibilangko kadi nga awan basol ti maysa a tao no mangaramat isuna iti nakusit a pagtimbangan, nga addaan ti supot dagiti manangallilaw a pagtimbangan?
12 For its men of wealth are cruel, and its people have said what is not true, and their tongue is false in their mouth.
Dagiti nabaknang a tattao a napnoan ti kinaranggas, dagiti agnanaed sadiay ket agsaoda iti inuulbod, ken ti dila kadagiti ngiwatda ket manangallilaw.
13 So I have made a start with your punishment; I have made you waste because of your sins.
Ngarud, sugatenka iti nakaro, pinagbalinka a pakadadaelan gapu kadagiti basolmo.
14 You will have food, but not enough; your shame will be ever with you: you will get your goods moved, but you will not take them away safely; and what you do take away I will give to the sword.
Manganka ngem saanka a mapnek; addanto latta kenka ti kinaunga-ong. Agidulinka ngem saanka a maka-urnong, ket ti maurnongmo ket iyawatkonto iti kampilan.
15 You will put in seed, but you will not get in the grain; you will be crushing olives, but your bodies will not be rubbed with the oil; and you will get in the grapes, but you will have no wine.
Agmulaka ngem saankanto nga agapit; agbaddekka iti olibo ngem saanmo a masapsapuan ta bagim iti lana; agpespeska iti ubas ngem awan ti mainummo nga arak.
16 For you have kept the laws of Omri and all the works of the family of Ahab, and you have been guided by their designs: so that I might make you a cause of wonder and your people a cause of hisses; and the shame of my people will be on you.
Sinalimetmetam dagiti allagaden nga inaramid ni Omri, ken dagiti amin nga ar-aramid iti balay ni Ahab. Nagnaka babaen kadagiti balakadda. Isu a sika a siudad, pagbalinenka a dadael, ken dakayo nga agnanaed ket pagbalinekto a malalais, ket awitenyonto ti pannakaibabain a kas kadagiti tattaok.”
