< Micah 2 >
1 Woe to them that devise iniquity and work evil upon their beds! When the morning is light they practise it, because it is in the power of their hand.
Ac mau fuka upaiya nu selos su oan na ngetnget ke fong, ac akoo in oru ma koluk. Toang na ke lotutang tok ah, elos orala ma koluk se elos akoo in oru fin mwesas nu selos.
2 And they covet fields, and take them by violence; and houses, and take them away; and they oppress a man and his house, even a man and his heritage.
Elos fin mwel ima se, na elos sruokya. Ac elos fin mwet lohm se, elos eisla pac. Wangin acn lun mwet, ku mwe usru lun sou se, ac oan okak.
3 Therefore thus saith Jehovah: Behold, against this family do I devise an evil, from which ye shall not remove your necks; neither shall ye walk haughtily: for it is an evil time.
Na pa LEUM GOD El Fahk, “Nga akola in use ongoiya nu fowos, ac kowos fah tia ku in kaingkunla. Kowos ac sun ongoiya, na kowos fah tia sifil farengreng.
4 In that day shall they take up a proverb concerning you, and lament with a doleful lamentation, [and] say, We are utterly spoiled: he hath changed the portion of my people: how hath he removed it from me! He hath distributed our fields to the rebellious.
Ke pacl sac, mwet uh ac mau sramsramkin kowos oana sie pupulyuk ke mwe ongoiya lulap, ac elos fah yuk on soko inge ke ma upa ma kowos sun uh: Kut arulana musalla! LEUM GOD El eisla acn sesr liki kut Ac sang nu selos su uskutla nu in sruoh.”
5 Therefore thou shalt have none that shall cast the measuring line upon a lot, in the congregation of Jehovah.
Ouinge, ke pacl se acn uh folokyang nu sin mwet lun LEUM GOD, ac fah wangin acn lun kutena suwos.
6 Prophesy ye not, they prophesy. If they do not prophesy to these, the ignominy will not depart.
Mwet uh kaskas nu sik ac fahk, “Nimet luti nu sesr. Nimet fahk ma ingan nufon. God El ac tia aklusrongtenye kut.
7 O thou [that art] named the house of Jacob, Is Jehovah impatient? are these his doings? Do not my words do good to him that walketh uprightly?
Ya kom nunku mu mwet Israel uh selngawiyuki? Ya wanginla mongfisrasr lun LEUM GOD? Ya pwaye El ac oru kain ouiya ingan? Ya El tia kaskas kulang nu sin mwet ma oru ma suwohs uh?”
8 But of late my people is risen up as an enemy: ye strip off the mantle with the garment from them that pass by securely, that are averse from war.
A LEUM GOD El topuk ac fahk, “Kowos sroang orek anwuk nu sin mwet luk oana elos in mwet lokoalok lowos. Mukul su foloko liki mweun elos nunku mu elos wo ouiya sun lohm selos — elos tiana etu lah kowos muta soanelos in tuh pisrala nuknuk elos nukum uh.
9 The women of my people do ye cast out from their pleasant houses; from their young children do ye take away my magnificence for ever.
Kowos lusla mutan inmasrlon mwet luk liki acn selos su elos nunku yohk, ac kowos oru tuh tulik natulos in tia sifil eis mwe insewowo sik mwe tok.
10 Arise ye, and depart; for this is not the resting-place, because of defilement that bringeth destruction, even a grievous destruction.
Tuyak ac fahla liki acn inge. Wanginla nien molela yenu. Orekma koluk lowos arulana akfohkfokyela acn uh, pwanang ac fah sikiyukla.
11 If a man walking in wind and falsehood do lie, [saying, ] I will prophesy unto thee of wine and of strong drink, he shall be the prophet of this people.
“Mwet inge lungkin kain mwet palu su foroht forma, sessesla ke kikiap ac kutasrik, ac fahk, ‘Nga palye mu ac fah arulana yohk wain ac mwe nim ku nimowos.’
12 I will surely assemble, O Jacob, the whole of thee; I will surely gather the remnant of Israel; I will put them together as sheep of Bozrah, as a flock in the midst of their pasture: they shall make great noise by reason of [the multitude of] men.
“Tuh nga fah eiskowoseni nu sie, kowos mwet Israel nukewa su lula. Nga fah uskowoseni oana sheep su foloko nu in kalkal lalos uh. Acn suwos ac fah sifilpa sessesla ke mwet puspis, oana sie insroan mah su nwanala ke sheep.”
13 One that breaketh through is gone up before them: they have broken forth, and have passed on to the gate, and are gone out by it; and their king passeth on before them, and Jehovah at the head of them.
God El fah ikasla sie inkanek nu selos ac kololosla liki sruoh. Elos ac fah fokolla mutunpot ke siti uh ac sukosokla. LEUM GOD sifacna, su tokosra lalos, fah kololosla.
