Micah 5
1 Now gather thyself in troops, O daughter of troops; he hath laid siege against us: they shall smite the judge of Israel with a rod upon the cheek.
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 thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, little to be among the thousands of Judah, out of thee shall he come forth unto me [who is] to be Ruler in Israel: whose goings forth are from of old, from the days of eternity.)
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 Therefore will he give them up, until the time when she which travaileth shall have brought forth: and the residue of his brethren shall return unto 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 shall stand and feed [his flock] in the strength of Jehovah, in the majesty of the name of Jehovah his God. And they shall abide; for now shall he be great even unto 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 [man] shall be Peace. When the Assyrian shall come into our land, and when he shall tread in our palaces, then shall we raise against him seven shepherds, and eight princes of 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 shall waste the land of Asshur with the sword, and the land of Nimrod in the entrances thereof; and he shall deliver [us] from the Assyrian, when he cometh into our land, and when he treadeth within our borders.
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 remnant of Jacob shall be in the midst of many peoples as dew from Jehovah, as showers upon the grass, that tarrieth not for man, neither waiteth 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 remnant of Jacob shall be among the nations, in the midst of many peoples, as a lion among the beasts of the forest, as a young lion among the flocks of sheep: who, if he go through, treadeth down, and teareth in pieces, and there is none to deliver.
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 Thy hand shall be lifted up upon thine adversaries, and all thine enemies shall be cut off.
Ke men ou vin leve kont advèsè Ou yo e lènmi Ou yo va vin koupe retire nèt.
10 And it shall come to pass in that day, saith Jehovah, that I will cut off thy horses out of the midst of thee, and I will destroy thy chariots.
“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 And I will cut off the cities of thy land, and overthrow all thy strongholds.
“Anplis, Mwen va koupe retire vil nan peyi nou yo, e mwen va jete tout miray fòterès nou yo.
12 And I will cut off sorceries out of thy hand; and thou shalt have no soothsayers.
Mwen va koupe retire zafè tout wanga soti nan men nou, e nou p ap gen divinò ankò.
13 Thy graven images also will I cut off, and thy statues out of the midst of thee; and thou shalt no more bow down to the work of thy 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 And I will pluck up thine Asherahs out of the midst of thee, and I will destroy thy cities.
Mwen va dechouke Asherim ki pami nou yo, e mwen va detwi vil nou yo.
15 And I will execute vengeance in anger and in fury upon the nations, such as they have not heard of.
Epi Mwen va egzekite vanjans kòlè ak gwo mekontantman sou nasyon ki pa t koute yo.”
